Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 239/76,6551/722
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 239,6551
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 239,6551 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 76,722 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 76,722 is 1444 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 239,6551
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 239 that divides 239 without a remainder.
1,239
Factors of 6551
List of positive integer factors of 6551 that divides 6551 without a remainder.
1,6551
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 239,6551 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 239,6551 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 76,722
2 | 76, 722 |
19 | 38, 361 |
2, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 19 x 2 x 19 = 1444
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1444
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 239/76,6551/722 is 1/1444
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 76,722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(76,722) = 38
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(76,722) x common factors =38 x 1 = 38
LCM(76,722) = ( 76 × 722 ) / 38
LCM(76,722) = 54872 / 38
LCM(76,722) = 1444
