Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 163/77,8612/874
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 163,8612
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 163,8612 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 77,874 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 77,874 is 67298 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 163,8612
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,163
Factors of 8612
List of positive integer factors of 8612 that divides 8612 without a remainder.
1,2,4,2153,4306,8612
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 163,8612 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 163,8612 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,874
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67298
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67298
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 163/77,8612/874 is 1/67298
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 77,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,874) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,874) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,874) = ( 77 × 874 ) / 1
LCM(77,874) = 67298 / 1
LCM(77,874) = 67298
