Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 964/541,518/913
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 964,518
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 964,518 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 541,913 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 541,913 is 493933 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 964,518
2 | 964, 518 |
482, 259 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

List of positive integer factors of 964 that divides 964 without a remainder.
1,2,4,241,482,964
Factors of 518
List of positive integer factors of 518 that divides 518 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,37,74,259,518
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 964,518 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 964,518 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 541,913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 493933
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/493933
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 964/541,518/913 is 2/493933
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 541,913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(541,913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(541,913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(541,913) = ( 541 × 913 ) / 1
LCM(541,913) = 493933 / 1
LCM(541,913) = 493933
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
