Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 274/91,742/6428
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 274,742
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 274,742 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 91,6428 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 91,6428 is 584948 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 274,742
2 | 274, 742 |
137, 371 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 742
List of positive integer factors of 742 that divides 742 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,53,106,371,742
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 274,742 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 274,742 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 91,6428
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 584948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/584948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 274/91,742/6428 is 2/584948
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 91,6428 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(91,6428) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(91,6428) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(91,6428) = ( 91 × 6428 ) / 1
LCM(91,6428) = 584948 / 1
LCM(91,6428) = 584948
