Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 629/72,924/760
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 629,924
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 629,924 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 72,760 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 72,760 is 6840 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 629,924
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 924
List of positive integer factors of 924 that divides 924 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,7,11,12,14,21,22,28,33,42,44,66,77,84,132,154,231,308,462,924
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 629,924 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 629,924 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,760
2 | 72, 760 |
2 | 36, 380 |
2 | 18, 190 |
9, 95 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 9 x 95 = 6840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 629/72,924/760 is 1/6840
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 72,760 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,760) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,760) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(72,760) = ( 72 × 760 ) / 8
LCM(72,760) = 54720 / 8
LCM(72,760) = 6840
