Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 801/26,207/4482
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 801,207
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 801,207 is 9 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,4482 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,4482 is 58266 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 801,207
3 | 801, 207 |
3 | 267, 69 |
89, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9

1,3,9,23,69,207
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 801,207 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 801,207 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,4482
2 | 26, 4482 |
13, 2241 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 2241 = 58266
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/58266
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 801/26,207/4482 is 9/58266
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 26,4482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,4482) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,4482) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(26,4482) = ( 26 × 4482 ) / 2
LCM(26,4482) = 116532 / 2
LCM(26,4482) = 58266
