Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2459/77,3860/301
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 2459,3860
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2459,3860 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 77,301 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 77,301 is 3311 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2459,3860
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,10,20,193,386,772,965,1930,3860
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2459,3860 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2459,3860 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,301
7 | 77, 301 |
11, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 11 x 43 = 3311
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3311
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2459/77,3860/301 is 1/3311
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 77,301 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,301) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,301) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(77,301) = ( 77 × 301 ) / 7
LCM(77,301) = 23177 / 7
LCM(77,301) = 3311
