Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 817/236,3059/345
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 817,3059
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 817,3059 is 19 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 236,345 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 236,345 is 81420 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 817,3059
19 | 817, 3059 |
43, 161 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 19 = 19

1,7,19,23,133,161,437,3059
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 817,3059 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 817,3059 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,345
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 81420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/81420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 817/236,3059/345 is 19/81420
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 236,345 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,345) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,345) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,345) = ( 236 × 345 ) / 1
LCM(236,345) = 81420 / 1
LCM(236,345) = 81420
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
