Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 851/616,8234/347
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 851,8234
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 851,8234 is 23 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 616,347 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 616,347 is 213752 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 851,8234
23 | 851, 8234 |
37, 358 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23

1,23,37,851
Factors of 8234
List of positive integer factors of 8234 that divides 8234 without a remainder.
1,2,23,46,179,358,4117,8234
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 851,8234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 851,8234 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 616,347
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 213752
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/213752
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 851/616,8234/347 is 23/213752
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 616,347 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(616,347) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(616,347) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(616,347) = ( 616 × 347 ) / 1
LCM(616,347) = 213752 / 1
LCM(616,347) = 213752
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
