Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4724/20,8651/790
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 4724,8651
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4724,8651 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,790 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,790 is 1580 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4724,8651
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 8651
List of positive integer factors of 8651 that divides 8651 without a remainder.
1,41,211,8651
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4724,8651 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4724,8651 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,790
2 | 20, 790 |
5 | 10, 395 |
2, 79 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 2 x 79 = 1580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4724/20,8651/790 is 1/1580
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 20,790 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,790) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,790) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(20,790) = ( 20 × 790 ) / 10
LCM(20,790) = 15800 / 10
LCM(20,790) = 1580
