Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 352/77,4706/961
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 352,4706
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 352,4706 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 77,961 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 77,961 is 73997 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 352,4706
2 | 352, 4706 |
176, 2353 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 4706
List of positive integer factors of 4706 that divides 4706 without a remainder.
1,2,13,26,181,362,2353,4706
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 352,4706 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 352,4706 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 73997
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/73997
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 352/77,4706/961 is 2/73997
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 77,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,961) = ( 77 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(77,961) = 73997 / 1
LCM(77,961) = 73997
