Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 562/46,726/6351
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 562,726
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 562,726 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,6351 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,6351 is 292146 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 562,726
2 | 562, 726 |
281, 363 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66,121,242,363,726
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 562,726 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 562,726 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,6351
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 292146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/292146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 562/46,726/6351 is 2/292146
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 46,6351 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,6351) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,6351) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,6351) = ( 46 × 6351 ) / 1
LCM(46,6351) = 292146 / 1
LCM(46,6351) = 292146
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
