Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 66/952,946/536
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 66,946
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 66,946 is 22 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 952,536 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 952,536 is 63784 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 66,946
2 | 66, 946 |
11 | 33, 473 |
3, 43 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 11 = 22

1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66
Factors of 946
List of positive integer factors of 946 that divides 946 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,43,86,473,946
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,946 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,946 is 22.
Lets's calculate LCM of 952,536
2 | 952, 536 |
2 | 476, 268 |
2 | 238, 134 |
119, 67 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 119 x 67 = 63784
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 22/63784
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/952,946/536 is 22/63784
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 952,536 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(952,536) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(952,536) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(952,536) = ( 952 × 536 ) / 8
LCM(952,536) = 510272 / 8
LCM(952,536) = 63784
