Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2906/31,4856/563
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 2906,4856
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2906,4856 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,563 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,563 is 17453 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2906,4856
2 | 2906, 4856 |
1453, 2428 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,1453,2906
Factors of 4856
List of positive integer factors of 4856 that divides 4856 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,607,1214,2428,4856
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2906,4856 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2906,4856 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,563
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17453
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17453
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2906/31,4856/563 is 2/17453
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 31,563 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,563) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,563) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,563) = ( 31 × 563 ) / 1
LCM(31,563) = 17453 / 1
LCM(31,563) = 17453
