Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 77/507,352/215
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 77,352
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 77,352 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 507,215 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 507,215 is 109005 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 77,352
11 | 77, 352 |
7, 32 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11

1,7,11,77
Factors of 352
List of positive integer factors of 352 that divides 352 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,16,22,32,44,88,176,352
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 77,352 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 77,352 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 507,215
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 109005
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/109005
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/507,352/215 is 11/109005
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 507,215 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(507,215) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(507,215) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(507,215) = ( 507 × 215 ) / 1
LCM(507,215) = 109005 / 1
LCM(507,215) = 109005
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
