Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 893/517,1278/797
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 893,1278
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 893,1278 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 517,797 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 517,797 is 412049 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 893,1278
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,19,47,893
Factors of 1278
List of positive integer factors of 1278 that divides 1278 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,71,142,213,426,639,1278
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 893,1278 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 893,1278 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 517,797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 412049
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/412049
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 893/517,1278/797 is 1/412049
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 517,797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(517,797) = ( 517 × 797 ) / 1
LCM(517,797) = 412049 / 1
LCM(517,797) = 412049
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
