Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 832/535,208/236
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 832,208
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 832,208 is 208 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 535,236 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 535,236 is 126260 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 832,208
2 | 832, 208 |
2 | 416, 104 |
2 | 208, 52 |
2 | 104, 26 |
13 | 52, 13 |
4, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 13 = 208

1,2,4,8,13,16,26,52,104,208
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 832,208 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 832,208 is 208.
Lets's calculate LCM of 535,236
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 126260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 208/126260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 832/535,208/236 is 208/126260
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 535,236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(535,236) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(535,236) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(535,236) = ( 535 × 236 ) / 1
LCM(535,236) = 126260 / 1
LCM(535,236) = 126260
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
