Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 963/71,4407/249
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 963,4407
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 963,4407 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 71,249 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 71,249 is 17679 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 963,4407
3 | 963, 4407 |
321, 1469 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

List of positive integer factors of 4407 that divides 4407 without a remainder.
1,3,13,39,113,339,1469,4407
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 963,4407 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 963,4407 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17679
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/17679
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 963/71,4407/249 is 3/17679
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 71,249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,249) = ( 71 × 249 ) / 1
LCM(71,249) = 17679 / 1
LCM(71,249) = 17679
