Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 412/45,531/4872
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 412,531
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 412,531 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 45,4872 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 45,4872 is 73080 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 412,531
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,103,206,412
Factors of 531
List of positive integer factors of 531 that divides 531 without a remainder.
1,3,9,59,177,531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 412,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 412,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,4872
3 | 45, 4872 |
15, 1624 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 15 x 1624 = 73080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/73080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 412/45,531/4872 is 1/73080
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 45,4872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,4872) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,4872) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(45,4872) = ( 45 × 4872 ) / 3
LCM(45,4872) = 219240 / 3
LCM(45,4872) = 73080
