Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 130/79,460/778
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 130,460
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 130,460 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 79,778 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 79,778 is 61462 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 130,460
2 | 130, 460 |
5 | 65, 230 |
13, 46 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

List of positive integer factors of 130 that divides 130 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,13,26,65,130
Factors of 460
List of positive integer factors of 460 that divides 460 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,23,46,92,115,230,460
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 130,460 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 130,460 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,778
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 61462
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/61462
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 130/79,460/778 is 10/61462
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 79,778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,778) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,778) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,778) = ( 79 × 778 ) / 1
LCM(79,778) = 61462 / 1
LCM(79,778) = 61462
