Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 322/48,229/446
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 322,229
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 322,229 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 48,446 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 48,446 is 10704 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 322,229
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,7,14,23,46,161,322
Factors of 229
List of positive integer factors of 229 that divides 229 without a remainder.
1,229
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 322,229 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 322,229 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,446
2 | 48, 446 |
24, 223 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 24 x 223 = 10704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 322/48,229/446 is 1/10704
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 48,446 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,446) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,446) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(48,446) = ( 48 × 446 ) / 2
LCM(48,446) = 21408 / 2
LCM(48,446) = 10704
