Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 27/577,648/283
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 27,648
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 27,648 is 27 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 577,283 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 577,283 is 163291 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 27,648
3 | 27, 648 |
3 | 9, 216 |
3 | 3, 72 |
1, 24 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 3 = 27

Factors of 648
List of positive integer factors of 648 that divides 648 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,27,36,54,72,81,108,162,216,324,648
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 27,648 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 27,648 is 27.
Lets's calculate LCM of 577,283
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 163291
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/163291
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 27/577,648/283 is 27/163291
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 577,283 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(577,283) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(577,283) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(577,283) = ( 577 × 283 ) / 1
LCM(577,283) = 163291 / 1
LCM(577,283) = 163291
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
