Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 135/44,774/944
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 135,774
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 135,774 is 9 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 44,944 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 44,944 is 10384 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 135,774
3 | 135, 774 |
3 | 45, 258 |
15, 86 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 = 9

Factors of 774
List of positive integer factors of 774 that divides 774 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,43,86,129,258,387,774
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 135,774 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 135,774 is 9.
Lets's calculate LCM of 44,944
2 | 44, 944 |
2 | 22, 472 |
11, 236 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 11 x 236 = 10384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 9/10384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 135/44,774/944 is 9/10384
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 44,944 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(44,944) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(44,944) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(44,944) = ( 44 × 944 ) / 4
LCM(44,944) = 41536 / 4
LCM(44,944) = 10384
