Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1773/49,3999/909
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 1773,3999
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1773,3999 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 49,909 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 49,909 is 44541 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1773,3999
3 | 1773, 3999 |
591, 1333 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

List of positive integer factors of 3999 that divides 3999 without a remainder.
1,3,31,43,93,129,1333,3999
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1773,3999 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1773,3999 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,909
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44541
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/44541
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1773/49,3999/909 is 3/44541
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 49,909 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,909) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,909) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,909) = ( 49 × 909 ) / 1
LCM(49,909) = 44541 / 1
LCM(49,909) = 44541
