Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 47/917,564/946
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 47,564
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 47,564 is 47 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 917,946 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 917,946 is 867482 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 47,564
47 | 47, 564 |
1, 12 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 47 = 47

Factors of 564
List of positive integer factors of 564 that divides 564 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,47,94,141,188,282,564
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 47,564 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 47,564 is 47.
Lets's calculate LCM of 917,946
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 867482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 47/867482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 47/917,564/946 is 47/867482
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 917,946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(917,946) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(917,946) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(917,946) = ( 917 × 946 ) / 1
LCM(917,946) = 867482 / 1
LCM(917,946) = 867482
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
