Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 820/261,533/194
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 820,533
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 820,533 is 41 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 261,194 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 261,194 is 50634 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 820,533
41 | 820, 533 |
20, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 41 = 41

1,2,4,5,10,20,41,82,164,205,410,820
Factors of 533
List of positive integer factors of 533 that divides 533 without a remainder.
1,13,41,533
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 820,533 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 820,533 is 41.
Lets's calculate LCM of 261,194
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50634
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 41/50634
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 820/261,533/194 is 41/50634
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 261,194 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,194) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,194) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,194) = ( 261 × 194 ) / 1
LCM(261,194) = 50634 / 1
LCM(261,194) = 50634
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
