Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 849/98,969/306
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 849,969
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 849,969 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 98,306 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 98,306 is 14994 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 849,969
3 | 849, 969 |
283, 323 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,17,19,51,57,323,969
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 849,969 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 849,969 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,306
2 | 98, 306 |
49, 153 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 49 x 153 = 14994
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/14994
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 849/98,969/306 is 3/14994
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 98,306 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,306) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,306) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(98,306) = ( 98 × 306 ) / 2
LCM(98,306) = 29988 / 2
LCM(98,306) = 14994
