Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1485/35,1656/603
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 1485,1656
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1485,1656 is 9 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 35,603 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 35,603 is 21105 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1485,1656
3 | 1485, 1656 |
3 | 495, 552 |
165, 184 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1485,1656 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1485,1656 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,603
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21105
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/21105
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1485/35,1656/603 is 9/21105
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 35,603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,603) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,603) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,603) = ( 35 × 603 ) / 1
LCM(35,603) = 21105 / 1
LCM(35,603) = 21105
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
