Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 702/99,486/670
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 702,486
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 702,486 is 54 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 99,670 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 99,670 is 66330 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 702,486
2 | 702, 486 |
3 | 351, 243 |
3 | 117, 81 |
3 | 39, 27 |
13, 9 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 54

1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54,81,162,243,486
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 702,486 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 702,486 is 54.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,670
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 66330
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 54/66330
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 702/99,486/670 is 54/66330
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 99,670 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,670) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,670) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,670) = ( 99 × 670 ) / 1
LCM(99,670) = 66330 / 1
LCM(99,670) = 66330
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
