Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 841/173,864/320
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 841,864
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 841,864 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 173,320 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 173,320 is 55360 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 841,864
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,29,841
Factors of 864
List of positive integer factors of 864 that divides 864 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,16,18,24,27,32,36,48,54,72,96,108,144,216,288,432,864
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 841,864 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 841,864 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 173,320
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 55360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/55360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 841/173,864/320 is 1/55360
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 173,320 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,320) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,320) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,320) = ( 173 × 320 ) / 1
LCM(173,320) = 55360 / 1
LCM(173,320) = 55360
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
