Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 800/23,300/8112
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 800,300
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 800,300 is 100 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,8112 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,8112 is 186576 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 800,300
2 | 800, 300 |
2 | 400, 150 |
5 | 200, 75 |
5 | 40, 15 |
8, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 = 100

Factors of 300
List of positive integer factors of 300 that divides 300 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,25,30,50,60,75,100,150,300
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 800,300 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 800,300 is 100.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,8112
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 186576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 100/186576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 800/23,300/8112 is 100/186576
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 23,8112 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,8112) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,8112) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,8112) = ( 23 × 8112 ) / 1
LCM(23,8112) = 186576 / 1
LCM(23,8112) = 186576
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
