Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 537/444,2104/945
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 537,2104
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 537,2104 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 444,945 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 444,945 is 139860 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 537,2104
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 2104
List of positive integer factors of 2104 that divides 2104 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,263,526,1052,2104
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 537,2104 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 537,2104 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 444,945
3 | 444, 945 |
148, 315 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 148 x 315 = 139860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/139860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 537/444,2104/945 is 1/139860
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 444,945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(444,945) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(444,945) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(444,945) = ( 444 × 945 ) / 3
LCM(444,945) = 419580 / 3
LCM(444,945) = 139860
