Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 894/629,232/787
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 894,232
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 894,232 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 629,787 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 629,787 is 495023 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 894,232
2 | 894, 232 |
447, 116 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,3,6,149,298,447,894
Factors of 232
List of positive integer factors of 232 that divides 232 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,29,58,116,232
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 894,232 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 894,232 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 629,787
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 495023
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/495023
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 894/629,232/787 is 2/495023
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 629,787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(629,787) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(629,787) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(629,787) = ( 629 × 787 ) / 1
LCM(629,787) = 495023 / 1
LCM(629,787) = 495023
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
