Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1745/12,3455/464
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 1745,3455
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1745,3455 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 12,464 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 12,464 is 1392 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1745,3455
5 | 1745, 3455 |
349, 691 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,5,349,1745
Factors of 3455
List of positive integer factors of 3455 that divides 3455 without a remainder.
1,5,691,3455
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1745,3455 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1745,3455 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,464
2 | 12, 464 |
2 | 6, 232 |
3, 116 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 116 = 1392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/1392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1745/12,3455/464 is 5/1392
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 12,464 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,464) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(12,464) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(12,464) = ( 12 × 464 ) / 4
LCM(12,464) = 5568 / 4
LCM(12,464) = 1392
