Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1879/24,7281/358
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 1879,7281
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1879,7281 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 24,358 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 24,358 is 4296 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1879,7281
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,1879
Factors of 7281
List of positive integer factors of 7281 that divides 7281 without a remainder.
1,3,9,809,2427,7281
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1879,7281 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1879,7281 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,358
2 | 24, 358 |
12, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 12 x 179 = 4296
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4296
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1879/24,7281/358 is 1/4296
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 24,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,358) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,358) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(24,358) = ( 24 × 358 ) / 2
LCM(24,358) = 8592 / 2
LCM(24,358) = 4296
