Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 491/45,247/43,197/479
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 491,247,197
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 491,247,197 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 45,43,479 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 45,43,479 is 926865 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 491,247,197
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 491 that divides 491 without a remainder.
1,491
Factors of 247
List of positive integer factors of 247 that divides 247 without a remainder.
1,13,19,247
Factors of 197
List of positive integer factors of 197 that divides 197 without a remainder.
1,197
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 491,247,197 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 491,247,197 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,43,479
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 926865
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/926865
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 491/45,247/43,197/479 is 1/926865
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 45,43,479 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,43,479) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,43,479) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,43,479) = ( 45 × 43 × 479 ) / 1
LCM(45,43,479) = 926865 / 1
LCM(45,43,479) = 926865
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
