Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 483/24,471/1303
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 483,471
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 483,471 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 24,1303 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 24,1303 is 31272 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 483,471
3 | 483, 471 |
161, 157 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 471
List of positive integer factors of 471 that divides 471 without a remainder.
1,3,157,471
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 483,471 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 483,471 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,1303
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31272
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/31272
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 483/24,471/1303 is 3/31272
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 24,1303 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,1303) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,1303) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(24,1303) = ( 24 × 1303 ) / 1
LCM(24,1303) = 31272 / 1
LCM(24,1303) = 31272
