Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 801/493,300/389
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 801,300
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 801,300 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 493,389 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 493,389 is 191777 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 801,300
3 | 801, 300 |
267, 100 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,9,89,267,801
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 801,300 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 801,300 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 493,389
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 191777
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/191777
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 801/493,300/389 is 3/191777
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 493,389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,389) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,389) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,389) = ( 493 × 389 ) / 1
LCM(493,389) = 191777 / 1
LCM(493,389) = 191777
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
