Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1793/224,4609/283
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 1793,4609
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1793,4609 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 224,283 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 224,283 is 63392 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1793,4609
11 | 1793, 4609 |
163, 419 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11

1,11,163,1793
Factors of 4609
List of positive integer factors of 4609 that divides 4609 without a remainder.
1,11,419,4609
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1793,4609 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1793,4609 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 224,283
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63392
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/63392
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1793/224,4609/283 is 11/63392
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 224,283 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(224,283) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(224,283) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(224,283) = ( 224 × 283 ) / 1
LCM(224,283) = 63392 / 1
LCM(224,283) = 63392
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
