Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 444/494,593/152
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 444,593
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 444,593 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 494,152 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 494,152 is 1976 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 444,593
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 444 that divides 444 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,37,74,111,148,222,444
Factors of 593
List of positive integer factors of 593 that divides 593 without a remainder.
1,593
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 444,593 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 444,593 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 494,152
2 | 494, 152 |
19 | 247, 76 |
13, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 13 x 4 = 1976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 444/494,593/152 is 1/1976
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 494,152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,152) = 38
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,152) x common factors =38 x 1 = 38
LCM(494,152) = ( 494 × 152 ) / 38
LCM(494,152) = 75088 / 38
LCM(494,152) = 1976
