Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 595/446,6000/487
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 595,6000
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 595,6000 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 446,487 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 446,487 is 217202 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 595,6000
5 | 595, 6000 |
119, 1200 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 595,6000 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 595,6000 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 446,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 217202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/217202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 595/446,6000/487 is 5/217202
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 446,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(446,487) = ( 446 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(446,487) = 217202 / 1
LCM(446,487) = 217202
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
