Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 363/179,693/652
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 363,693
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 363,693 is 33 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 179,652 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 179,652 is 116708 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 363,693
3 | 363, 693 |
11 | 121, 231 |
11, 21 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 11 = 33

1,3,7,9,11,21,33,63,77,99,231,693
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 363,693 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 363,693 is 33.
Lets's calculate LCM of 179,652
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 33/116708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 363/179,693/652 is 33/116708
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 179,652 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(179,652) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(179,652) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(179,652) = ( 179 × 652 ) / 1
LCM(179,652) = 116708 / 1
LCM(179,652) = 116708
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
