Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 594/46,211/768
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 594,211
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 594,211 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,768 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,768 is 17664 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 594,211
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 594 that divides 594 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,11,18,22,27,33,54,66,99,198,297,594
Factors of 211
List of positive integer factors of 211 that divides 211 without a remainder.
1,211
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 594,211 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 594,211 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,768
2 | 46, 768 |
23, 384 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 384 = 17664
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17664
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 594/46,211/768 is 1/17664
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 46,768 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,768) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,768) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(46,768) = ( 46 × 768 ) / 2
LCM(46,768) = 35328 / 2
LCM(46,768) = 17664
