Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 822/73,304/490
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 822,304
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 822,304 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 73,490 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 73,490 is 35770 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 822,304
2 | 822, 304 |
411, 152 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

List of positive integer factors of 822 that divides 822 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,137,274,411,822
Factors of 304
List of positive integer factors of 304 that divides 304 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,19,38,76,152,304
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 822,304 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 822,304 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,490
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 35770
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/35770
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 822/73,304/490 is 2/35770
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 73,490 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,490) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,490) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,490) = ( 73 × 490 ) / 1
LCM(73,490) = 35770 / 1
LCM(73,490) = 35770
