Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 465/54,954/521
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 465,954
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 465,954 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 54,521 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 54,521 is 28134 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 465,954
3 | 465, 954 |
155, 318 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,5,15,31,93,155,465
Factors of 954
List of positive integer factors of 954 that divides 954 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,53,106,159,318,477,954
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 465,954 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 465,954 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 54,521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28134
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/28134
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 465/54,954/521 is 3/28134
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 54,521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(54,521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(54,521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(54,521) = ( 54 × 521 ) / 1
LCM(54,521) = 28134 / 1
LCM(54,521) = 28134
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
