Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 348/14,1614/591
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 348,1614
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 348,1614 is 6 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 14,591 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 14,591 is 8274 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 348,1614
2 | 348, 1614 |
3 | 174, 807 |
58, 269 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 = 6

1,2,3,4,6,12,29,58,87,116,174,348
Factors of 1614
List of positive integer factors of 1614 that divides 1614 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,269,538,807,1614
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 348,1614 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 348,1614 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,591
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/8274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 348/14,1614/591 is 6/8274
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 14,591 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,591) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,591) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(14,591) = ( 14 × 591 ) / 1
LCM(14,591) = 8274 / 1
LCM(14,591) = 8274
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
