Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 573/798,282/991
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 573,282
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 573,282 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 798,991 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 798,991 is 790818 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 573,282
3 | 573, 282 |

∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 573
List of positive integer factors of 573 that divides 573 without a remainder.
1,3,191,573
Factors of 282
List of positive integer factors of 282 that divides 282 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,47,94,141,282
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 573,282 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 573,282 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 798,991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 790818
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/790818
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 573/798,282/991 is 3/790818
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 798,991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(798,991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(798,991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(798,991) = ( 798 × 991 ) / 1
LCM(798,991) = 790818 / 1
LCM(798,991) = 790818
