Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 129/44,5022/997
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 129,5022
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 129,5022 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 44,997 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 44,997 is 43868 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 129,5022
3 | 129, 5022 |
43, 1674 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,43,129
Factors of 5022
List of positive integer factors of 5022 that divides 5022 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,27,31,54,62,81,93,162,186,279,558,837,1674,2511,5022
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 129,5022 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 129,5022 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 43868
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/43868
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 129/44,5022/997 is 3/43868
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 44,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(44,997) = ( 44 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(44,997) = 43868 / 1
LCM(44,997) = 43868
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
