Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4740/52,2073/339
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 4740,2073
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4740,2073 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 52,339 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 52,339 is 17628 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4740,2073
3 | 4740, 2073 |
1580, 691 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 2073
List of positive integer factors of 2073 that divides 2073 without a remainder.
1,3,691,2073
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4740,2073 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4740,2073 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,339
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17628
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/17628
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4740/52,2073/339 is 3/17628
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 52,339 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,339) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,339) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(52,339) = ( 52 × 339 ) / 1
LCM(52,339) = 17628 / 1
LCM(52,339) = 17628
