Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 361/590,939/504
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 361,939
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 361,939 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 590,504 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 590,504 is 148680 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 361,939
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 361 that divides 361 without a remainder.
1,19,361
Factors of 939
List of positive integer factors of 939 that divides 939 without a remainder.
1,3,313,939
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 361,939 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 361,939 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 590,504
2 | 590, 504 |
295, 252 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 295 x 252 = 148680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/148680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 361/590,939/504 is 1/148680
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 590,504 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(590,504) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(590,504) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(590,504) = ( 590 × 504 ) / 2
LCM(590,504) = 297360 / 2
LCM(590,504) = 148680
