Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 954/56,417/352
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 954,417
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 954,417 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 56,352 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 56,352 is 2464 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 954,417
3 | 954, 417 |
318, 139 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 417
List of positive integer factors of 417 that divides 417 without a remainder.
1,3,139,417
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 954,417 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 954,417 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 56,352
2 | 56, 352 |
2 | 28, 176 |
2 | 14, 88 |
7, 44 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7 x 44 = 2464
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2464
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 954/56,417/352 is 3/2464
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 56,352 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(56,352) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(56,352) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(56,352) = ( 56 × 352 ) / 8
LCM(56,352) = 19712 / 8
LCM(56,352) = 2464
