Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 597/71,957/4905
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 597,957
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 597,957 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 71,4905 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 71,4905 is 348255 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 597,957
3 | 597, 957 |
199, 319 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

List of positive integer factors of 597 that divides 597 without a remainder.
1,3,199,597
Factors of 957
List of positive integer factors of 957 that divides 957 without a remainder.
1,3,11,29,33,87,319,957
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 597,957 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 597,957 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,4905
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 348255
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/348255
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 597/71,957/4905 is 3/348255
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 71,4905 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,4905) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,4905) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,4905) = ( 71 × 4905 ) / 1
LCM(71,4905) = 348255 / 1
LCM(71,4905) = 348255
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
