Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 627/863,7431/701
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 627,7431
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 627,7431 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 863,701 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 863,701 is 604963 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 627,7431
3 | 627, 7431 |
209, 2477 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 7431
List of positive integer factors of 7431 that divides 7431 without a remainder.
1,3,2477,7431
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 627,7431 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 627,7431 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 863,701
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 604963
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/604963
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 627/863,7431/701 is 3/604963
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 863,701 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(863,701) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(863,701) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(863,701) = ( 863 × 701 ) / 1
LCM(863,701) = 604963 / 1
LCM(863,701) = 604963
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
