Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 213/421,6867/497
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 213,6867
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 213,6867 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 421,497 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 421,497 is 209237 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 213,6867
3 | 213, 6867 |
71, 2289 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 6867
List of positive integer factors of 6867 that divides 6867 without a remainder.
1,3,7,9,21,63,109,327,763,981,2289,6867
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 213,6867 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 213,6867 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,497
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 209237
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/209237
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 213/421,6867/497 is 3/209237
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 421,497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,497) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,497) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,497) = ( 421 × 497 ) / 1
LCM(421,497) = 209237 / 1
LCM(421,497) = 209237
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
