Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 843/634,381/622
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 843,381
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 843,381 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 634,622 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 634,622 is 197174 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 843,381
3 | 843, 381 |
281, 127 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 843,381 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 843,381 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 634,622
2 | 634, 622 |
317, 311 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 317 x 311 = 197174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/197174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 843/634,381/622 is 3/197174
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 634,622 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(634,622) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(634,622) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(634,622) = ( 634 × 622 ) / 2
LCM(634,622) = 394348 / 2
LCM(634,622) = 197174
