Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 580/12,8143/632
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 580,8143
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 580,8143 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 12,632 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 12,632 is 1896 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 580,8143
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,10,20,29,58,116,145,290,580
Factors of 8143
List of positive integer factors of 8143 that divides 8143 without a remainder.
1,17,479,8143
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 580,8143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 580,8143 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,632
2 | 12, 632 |
2 | 6, 316 |
3, 158 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 158 = 1896
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1896
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 580/12,8143/632 is 1/1896
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 12,632 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,632) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(12,632) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(12,632) = ( 12 × 632 ) / 4
LCM(12,632) = 7584 / 4
LCM(12,632) = 1896
