Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 340/10,708/7529
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 340,708
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 340,708 is 4 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 10,7529 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 10,7529 is 75290 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 340,708
2 | 340, 708 |
2 | 170, 354 |
85, 177 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 = 4

So the greatest common factor 340,708 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,7529
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/75290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 340/10,708/7529 is 4/75290
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 10,7529 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,7529) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,7529) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(10,7529) = ( 10 × 7529 ) / 1
LCM(10,7529) = 75290 / 1
LCM(10,7529) = 75290
