Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 80/144,602/982
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 80,602
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 80,602 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 144,982 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 144,982 is 70704 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 80,602
2 | 80, 602 |
40, 301 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,40,80
Factors of 602
List of positive integer factors of 602 that divides 602 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,43,86,301,602
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 80,602 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 80,602 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 144,982
2 | 144, 982 |
72, 491 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 72 x 491 = 70704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/70704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 80/144,602/982 is 2/70704
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 144,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(144,982) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(144,982) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(144,982) = ( 144 × 982 ) / 2
LCM(144,982) = 141408 / 2
LCM(144,982) = 70704
