Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3753/94,1509/623
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 3753,1509
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3753,1509 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 94,623 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 94,623 is 58562 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3753,1509
3 | 3753, 1509 |
1251, 503 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 1509
List of positive integer factors of 1509 that divides 1509 without a remainder.
1,3,503,1509
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3753,1509 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3753,1509 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 94,623
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/58562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3753/94,1509/623 is 3/58562
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 94,623 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,623) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,623) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(94,623) = ( 94 × 623 ) / 1
LCM(94,623) = 58562 / 1
LCM(94,623) = 58562
