Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 504/79,693/112
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 504,693
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 504,693 is 63 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 79,112 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 79,112 is 8848 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 504,693
3 | 504, 693 |
3 | 168, 231 |
7 | 56, 77 |
8, 11 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 7 = 63

1,3,7,9,11,21,33,63,77,99,231,693
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 504,693 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 504,693 is 63.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,112
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8848
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 63/8848
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 504/79,693/112 is 63/8848
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 79,112 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,112) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,112) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,112) = ( 79 × 112 ) / 1
LCM(79,112) = 8848 / 1
LCM(79,112) = 8848
