Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 294/58,965/894
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 294,965
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 294,965 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 58,894 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 58,894 is 25926 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 294,965
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42,49,98,147,294
Factors of 965
List of positive integer factors of 965 that divides 965 without a remainder.
1,5,193,965
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 294,965 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 294,965 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 58,894
2 | 58, 894 |
29, 447 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 447 = 25926
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/25926
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 294/58,965/894 is 1/25926
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 58,894 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,894) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(58,894) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(58,894) = ( 58 × 894 ) / 2
LCM(58,894) = 51852 / 2
LCM(58,894) = 25926
