Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 27/403,5391/2712
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 27,5391
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 27,5391 is 9 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 403,2712 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 403,2712 is 1092936 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 27,5391
3 | 27, 5391 |
3 | 9, 1797 |
3, 599 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9
Factors of 27

1,3,9,27
Factors of 5391
List of positive integer factors of 5391 that divides 5391 without a remainder.
1,3,9,599,1797,5391
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 27,5391 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 27,5391 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 403,2712
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1092936
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/1092936
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 27/403,5391/2712 is 9/1092936
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 403,2712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(403,2712) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(403,2712) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(403,2712) = ( 403 × 2712 ) / 1
LCM(403,2712) = 1092936 / 1
LCM(403,2712) = 1092936
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
