Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 579/28,5096/461
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 579,5096
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 579,5096 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 28,461 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 28,461 is 12908 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 579,5096
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 579,5096 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 579,5096 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 579/28,5096/461 is 1/12908
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 28,461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(28,461) = ( 28 × 461 ) / 1
LCM(28,461) = 12908 / 1
LCM(28,461) = 12908
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
