Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 892/28,258/701
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 892,258
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 892,258 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 28,701 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 28,701 is 19628 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 892,258
2 | 892, 258 |
446, 129 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

List of positive integer factors of 892 that divides 892 without a remainder.
1,2,4,223,446,892
Factors of 258
List of positive integer factors of 258 that divides 258 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,43,86,129,258
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 892,258 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 892,258 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,701
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/19628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 892/28,258/701 is 2/19628
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 28,701 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,701) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,701) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,701) = ( 28 × 701 ) / 1
LCM(28,701) = 19628 / 1
LCM(28,701) = 19628
