Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 976/133,346/662
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 976,346
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 976,346 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 133,662 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 133,662 is 88046 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 976,346
2 | 976, 346 |
488, 173 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 346
List of positive integer factors of 346 that divides 346 without a remainder.
1,2,173,346
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 976,346 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 976,346 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 133,662
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 88046
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/88046
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 976/133,346/662 is 2/88046
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 133,662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(133,662) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(133,662) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(133,662) = ( 133 × 662 ) / 1
LCM(133,662) = 88046 / 1
LCM(133,662) = 88046
