Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 224/41,476/6091
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 224,476
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 224,476 is 28 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 41,6091 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 41,6091 is 249731 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 224,476
2 | 224, 476 |
2 | 112, 238 |
7 | 56, 119 |
8, 17 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 = 28

Factors of 476
List of positive integer factors of 476 that divides 476 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,14,17,28,34,68,119,238,476
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 224,476 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 224,476 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,6091
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 249731
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/249731
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 224/41,476/6091 is 28/249731
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 41,6091 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,6091) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,6091) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,6091) = ( 41 × 6091 ) / 1
LCM(41,6091) = 249731 / 1
LCM(41,6091) = 249731
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
