Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 819/86,1041/442
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 819,1041
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 819,1041 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 86,442 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 86,442 is 19006 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 819,1041
3 | 819, 1041 |
273, 347 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,7,9,13,21,39,63,91,117,273,819
Factors of 1041
List of positive integer factors of 1041 that divides 1041 without a remainder.
1,3,347,1041
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 819,1041 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 819,1041 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,442
2 | 86, 442 |
43, 221 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 43 x 221 = 19006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/19006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 819/86,1041/442 is 3/19006
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 86,442 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,442) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(86,442) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(86,442) = ( 86 × 442 ) / 2
LCM(86,442) = 38012 / 2
LCM(86,442) = 19006
