Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 808/37,402/967
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 808,402
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 808,402 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,967 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,967 is 35779 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 808,402
2 | 808, 402 |
404, 201 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

List of positive integer factors of 808 that divides 808 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,101,202,404,808
Factors of 402
List of positive integer factors of 402 that divides 402 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,67,134,201,402
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 808,402 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 808,402 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 35779
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/35779
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 808/37,402/967 is 2/35779
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 37,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,967) = ( 37 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(37,967) = 35779 / 1
LCM(37,967) = 35779
