Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 925/642,362/159
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 925,362
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 925,362 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 642,159 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 642,159 is 34026 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 925,362
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,5,25,37,185,925
Factors of 362
List of positive integer factors of 362 that divides 362 without a remainder.
1,2,181,362
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 925,362 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 925,362 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 642,159
3 | 642, 159 |
214, 53 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 214 x 53 = 34026
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34026
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 925/642,362/159 is 1/34026
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 642,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(642,159) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(642,159) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(642,159) = ( 642 × 159 ) / 3
LCM(642,159) = 102078 / 3
LCM(642,159) = 34026
