Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 800/87,9412/199
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 800,9412
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 800,9412 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 87,199 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 87,199 is 17313 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 800,9412
2 | 800, 9412 |
2 | 400, 4706 |
200, 2353 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 800,9412 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 800,9412 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,199
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17313
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/17313
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 800/87,9412/199 is 4/17313
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 87,199 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,199) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,199) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,199) = ( 87 × 199 ) / 1
LCM(87,199) = 17313 / 1
LCM(87,199) = 17313
