Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 33/984,352/537
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 33,352
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 33,352 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 984,537 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 984,537 is 176136 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 33,352
11 | 33, 352 |
3, 32 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11

Factors of 352
List of positive integer factors of 352 that divides 352 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,16,22,32,44,88,176,352
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 33,352 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 33,352 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 984,537
3 | 984, 537 |
328, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 328 x 179 = 176136
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/176136
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/984,352/537 is 11/176136
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 984,537 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(984,537) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(984,537) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(984,537) = ( 984 × 537 ) / 3
LCM(984,537) = 528408 / 3
LCM(984,537) = 176136
