Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 85/486,935/414
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 85,935
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 85,935 is 85 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 486,414 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 486,414 is 11178 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 85,935
5 | 85, 935 |
17 | 17, 187 |
1, 11 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 x 17 = 85
Factors of 85

1,5,17,85
Factors of 935
List of positive integer factors of 935 that divides 935 without a remainder.
1,5,11,17,55,85,187,935
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 85,935 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 85,935 is 85.
Lets's calculate LCM of 486,414
2 | 486, 414 |
3 | 243, 207 |
3 | 81, 69 |
27, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 27 x 23 = 11178
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 85/11178
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 85/486,935/414 is 85/11178
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 486,414 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(486,414) = 18
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(486,414) x common factors =18 x 1 = 18
LCM(486,414) = ( 486 × 414 ) / 18
LCM(486,414) = 201204 / 18
LCM(486,414) = 11178
