Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 804/35,178/5491
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 804,178
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 804,178 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 35,5491 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 35,5491 is 192185 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 804,178
2 | 804, 178 |
402, 89 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

List of positive integer factors of 804 that divides 804 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,67,134,201,268,402,804
Factors of 178
List of positive integer factors of 178 that divides 178 without a remainder.
1,2,89,178
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 804,178 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 804,178 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,5491
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 192185
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/192185
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 804/35,178/5491 is 2/192185
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 35,5491 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,5491) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,5491) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,5491) = ( 35 × 5491 ) / 1
LCM(35,5491) = 192185 / 1
LCM(35,5491) = 192185
