Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 552/415,957/453
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 552,957
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 552,957 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 415,453 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 415,453 is 187995 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 552,957
3 | 552, 957 |
184, 319 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 957
List of positive integer factors of 957 that divides 957 without a remainder.
1,3,11,29,33,87,319,957
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 552,957 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 552,957 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 415,453
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 187995
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/187995
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 552/415,957/453 is 3/187995
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 415,453 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(415,453) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(415,453) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(415,453) = ( 415 × 453 ) / 1
LCM(415,453) = 187995 / 1
LCM(415,453) = 187995
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
