Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 836/400,1400/753
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 836,1400
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 836,1400 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 400,753 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 400,753 is 301200 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 836,1400
2 | 836, 1400 |
2 | 418, 700 |
209, 350 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

Factors of 1400
List of positive integer factors of 1400 that divides 1400 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,7,8,10,14,20,25,28,35,40,50,56,70,100,140,175,200,280,350,700,1400
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 836,1400 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 836,1400 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 400,753
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 301200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/301200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 836/400,1400/753 is 4/301200
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 400,753 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(400,753) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(400,753) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(400,753) = ( 400 × 753 ) / 1
LCM(400,753) = 301200 / 1
LCM(400,753) = 301200
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
