Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 484/32,676/4459
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 484,676
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 484,676 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 32,4459 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 32,4459 is 142688 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 484,676
2 | 484, 676 |
2 | 242, 338 |
121, 169 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

1,2,4,13,26,52,169,338,676
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 484,676 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 484,676 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,4459
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 142688
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/142688
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 484/32,676/4459 is 4/142688
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 32,4459 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,4459) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,4459) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(32,4459) = ( 32 × 4459 ) / 1
LCM(32,4459) = 142688 / 1
LCM(32,4459) = 142688
