Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 867/832,177/883
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 867,177
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 867,177 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 832,883 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 832,883 is 734656 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 867,177
3 | 867, 177 |
289, 59 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

List of positive integer factors of 867 that divides 867 without a remainder.
1,3,17,51,289,867
Factors of 177
List of positive integer factors of 177 that divides 177 without a remainder.
1,3,59,177
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 867,177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 867,177 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 832,883
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 734656
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/734656
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 867/832,177/883 is 3/734656
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 832,883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(832,883) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(832,883) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(832,883) = ( 832 × 883 ) / 1
LCM(832,883) = 734656 / 1
LCM(832,883) = 734656
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
