Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 293/964,285/528
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 293,285
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 293,285 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 964,528 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 964,528 is 127248 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 293,285
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 285
List of positive integer factors of 285 that divides 285 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,19,57,95,285
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 293,285 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 293,285 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 964,528
2 | 964, 528 |
2 | 482, 264 |
241, 132 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 241 x 132 = 127248
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/127248
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 293/964,285/528 is 1/127248
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 964,528 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,528) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,528) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(964,528) = ( 964 × 528 ) / 4
LCM(964,528) = 508992 / 4
LCM(964,528) = 127248
