Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 403/20,8994/454
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 403,8994
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 403,8994 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,454 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,454 is 4540 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 403,8994
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 8994 that divides 8994 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,1499,2998,4497,8994
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 403,8994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 403,8994 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,454
2 | 20, 454 |
10, 227 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 10 x 227 = 4540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 403/20,8994/454 is 1/4540
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 20,454 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,454) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,454) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(20,454) = ( 20 × 454 ) / 2
LCM(20,454) = 9080 / 2
LCM(20,454) = 4540
