Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 329/78,355/9981
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 329,355
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 329,355 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 78,9981 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 78,9981 is 259506 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 329,355
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,7,47,329
Factors of 355
List of positive integer factors of 355 that divides 355 without a remainder.
1,5,71,355
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 329,355 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 329,355 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 78,9981
3 | 78, 9981 |
26, 3327 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 26 x 3327 = 259506
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/259506
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 329/78,355/9981 is 1/259506
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 78,9981 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(78,9981) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(78,9981) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(78,9981) = ( 78 × 9981 ) / 3
LCM(78,9981) = 778518 / 3
LCM(78,9981) = 259506
