Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1589/74,4077/206
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 1589,4077
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1589,4077 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 74,206 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 74,206 is 7622 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1589,4077
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 4077 that divides 4077 without a remainder.
1,3,9,27,151,453,1359,4077
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1589,4077 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1589,4077 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,206
2 | 74, 206 |
37, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 103 = 7622
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7622
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1589/74,4077/206 is 1/7622
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 74,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,206) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,206) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(74,206) = ( 74 × 206 ) / 2
LCM(74,206) = 15244 / 2
LCM(74,206) = 7622
