Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 106/460,872/759
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 106,872
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 106,872 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 460,759 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 460,759 is 15180 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 106,872
2 | 106, 872 |
53, 436 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 872
List of positive integer factors of 872 that divides 872 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,109,218,436,872
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 106,872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 106,872 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 460,759
23 | 460, 759 |
20, 33 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 23 x 20 x 33 = 15180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/15180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 106/460,872/759 is 2/15180
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 460,759 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(460,759) = 23
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(460,759) x common factors =23 x 1 = 23
LCM(460,759) = ( 460 × 759 ) / 23
LCM(460,759) = 349140 / 23
LCM(460,759) = 15180
