Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 35/999,966/909
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 35,966
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 35,966 is 7 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 999,909 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 999,909 is 100899 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 35,966
7 | 35, 966 |
5, 138 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 = 7

1,2,3,6,7,14,21,23,42,46,69,138,161,322,483,966
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 35,966 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 35,966 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 999,909
3 | 999, 909 |
3 | 333, 303 |
111, 101 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 111 x 101 = 100899
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/100899
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 35/999,966/909 is 7/100899
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 999,909 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(999,909) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(999,909) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(999,909) = ( 999 × 909 ) / 9
LCM(999,909) = 908091 / 9
LCM(999,909) = 100899
