Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 854/201,9904/856
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 854,9904
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 854,9904 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 201,856 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 201,856 is 172056 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 854,9904
2 | 854, 9904 |
427, 4952 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,4,8,16,619,1238,2476,4952,9904
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 854,9904 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 854,9904 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,856
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 172056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/172056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 854/201,9904/856 is 2/172056
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 201,856 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,856) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,856) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,856) = ( 201 × 856 ) / 1
LCM(201,856) = 172056 / 1
LCM(201,856) = 172056
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
