Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 274/78,1416/119
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 274,1416
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 274,1416 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 78,119 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 78,119 is 9282 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 274,1416
2 | 274, 1416 |
137, 708 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 1416
List of positive integer factors of 1416 that divides 1416 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24,59,118,177,236,354,472,708,1416
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 274,1416 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 274,1416 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,119
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/9282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 274/78,1416/119 is 2/9282
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 78,119 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,119) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,119) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(78,119) = ( 78 × 119 ) / 1
LCM(78,119) = 9282 / 1
LCM(78,119) = 9282
