Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 993/46,8853/849
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 993,8853
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 993,8853 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,849 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,849 is 39054 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 993,8853
3 | 993, 8853 |
331, 2951 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,331,993
Factors of 8853
List of positive integer factors of 8853 that divides 8853 without a remainder.
1,3,13,39,227,681,2951,8853
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 993,8853 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 993,8853 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,849
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39054
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/39054
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 993/46,8853/849 is 3/39054
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 46,849 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,849) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,849) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,849) = ( 46 × 849 ) / 1
LCM(46,849) = 39054 / 1
LCM(46,849) = 39054
