Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 367/27,1948/498
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 367,1948
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 367,1948 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 27,498 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 27,498 is 4482 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 367,1948
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,367
Factors of 1948
List of positive integer factors of 1948 that divides 1948 without a remainder.
1,2,4,487,974,1948
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 367,1948 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 367,1948 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 27,498
3 | 27, 498 |
9, 166 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 9 x 166 = 4482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 367/27,1948/498 is 1/4482
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 27,498 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(27,498) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(27,498) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(27,498) = ( 27 × 498 ) / 3
LCM(27,498) = 13446 / 3
LCM(27,498) = 4482
