Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 762/933,249/556
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 762,249
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 762,249 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 933,556 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 933,556 is 518748 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 762,249
3 | 762, 249 |
254, 83 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 249
List of positive integer factors of 249 that divides 249 without a remainder.
1,3,83,249
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 762,249 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 762,249 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 933,556
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 518748
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/518748
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 762/933,249/556 is 3/518748
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 933,556 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(933,556) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(933,556) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(933,556) = ( 933 × 556 ) / 1
LCM(933,556) = 518748 / 1
LCM(933,556) = 518748
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
