Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 360/97,730/6988
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 360,730
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 360,730 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 97,6988 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 97,6988 is 677836 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 360,730
2 | 360, 730 |
5 | 180, 365 |
36, 73 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

1,2,5,10,73,146,365,730
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 360,730 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 360,730 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,6988
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 677836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/677836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 360/97,730/6988 is 10/677836
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 97,6988 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,6988) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,6988) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,6988) = ( 97 × 6988 ) / 1
LCM(97,6988) = 677836 / 1
LCM(97,6988) = 677836
