Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 483/78,2861/584
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 483,2861
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 483,2861 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 78,584 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 78,584 is 22776 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 483,2861
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,7,21,23,69,161,483
Factors of 2861
List of positive integer factors of 2861 that divides 2861 without a remainder.
1,2861
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 483,2861 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 483,2861 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,584
2 | 78, 584 |
39, 292 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 39 x 292 = 22776
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22776
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 483/78,2861/584 is 1/22776
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 78,584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,584) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,584) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(78,584) = ( 78 × 584 ) / 2
LCM(78,584) = 45552 / 2
LCM(78,584) = 22776
