Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 303/666,153/618
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 303,153
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 303,153 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 666,618 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 666,618 is 68598 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 303,153
3 | 303, 153 |
101, 51 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,9,17,51,153
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 303,153 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 303,153 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 666,618
2 | 666, 618 |
3 | 333, 309 |
111, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 111 x 103 = 68598
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/68598
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 303/666,153/618 is 3/68598
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 666,618 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(666,618) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(666,618) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(666,618) = ( 666 × 618 ) / 6
LCM(666,618) = 411588 / 6
LCM(666,618) = 68598
