Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 924/28,609/258
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 924,609
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 924,609 is 21 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 28,258 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 28,258 is 3612 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 924,609
3 | 924, 609 |
7 | 308, 203 |
44, 29 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 7 = 21

1,3,7,21,29,87,203,609
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 924,609 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 924,609 is 21.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,258
2 | 28, 258 |
14, 129 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 14 x 129 = 3612
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/3612
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 924/28,609/258 is 21/3612
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 28,258 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,258) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,258) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(28,258) = ( 28 × 258 ) / 2
LCM(28,258) = 7224 / 2
LCM(28,258) = 3612
