Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 854/44,234/843
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 854,234
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 854,234 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 44,843 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 44,843 is 37092 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 854,234
2 | 854, 234 |
427, 117 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 234
List of positive integer factors of 234 that divides 234 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,13,18,26,39,78,117,234
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 854,234 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 854,234 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37092
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/37092
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 854/44,234/843 is 2/37092
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 44,843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(44,843) = ( 44 × 843 ) / 1
LCM(44,843) = 37092 / 1
LCM(44,843) = 37092
