Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 646/48,452/3641
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 646,452
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 646,452 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 48,3641 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 48,3641 is 174768 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 646,452
2 | 646, 452 |
323, 226 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

1,2,17,19,34,38,323,646
Factors of 452
List of positive integer factors of 452 that divides 452 without a remainder.
1,2,4,113,226,452
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 646,452 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 646,452 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,3641
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 174768
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/174768
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 646/48,452/3641 is 2/174768
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 48,3641 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,3641) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,3641) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(48,3641) = ( 48 × 3641 ) / 1
LCM(48,3641) = 174768 / 1
LCM(48,3641) = 174768
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
