Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 50/778,180/122
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 50,180
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 50,180 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 778,122 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 778,122 is 47458 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 50,180
2 | 50, 180 |
5 | 25, 90 |
5, 18 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

Factors of 180
List of positive integer factors of 180 that divides 180 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,5,6,9,10,12,15,18,20,30,36,45,60,90,180
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 50,180 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 50,180 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 778,122
2 | 778, 122 |
389, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 389 x 61 = 47458
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/47458
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 50/778,180/122 is 10/47458
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 778,122 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(778,122) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(778,122) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(778,122) = ( 778 × 122 ) / 2
LCM(778,122) = 94916 / 2
LCM(778,122) = 47458
