Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 686/88,104/2493
Formula to find GCF of Fractions is
GCF = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators
As per the formula GCF of Fractions let’s split into two parts and find the GCF of Numerators and LCM of Denominators
In the given fractions GCF of Numerators means GCF of 686,104
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 686,104 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 88,2493 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 88,2493 is 219384 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 686,104
2 | 686, 104 |
343, 52 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,7,14,49,98,343,686
Factors of 104
List of positive integer factors of 104 that divides 104 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,13,26,52,104
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 686,104 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 686,104 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 88,2493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 219384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/219384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 686/88,104/2493 is 2/219384
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 88,2493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(88,2493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(88,2493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(88,2493) = ( 88 × 2493 ) / 1
LCM(88,2493) = 219384 / 1
LCM(88,2493) = 219384
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
