Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 645/742,524/798
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 645,524
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 645,524 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 742,798 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 742,798 is 42294 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 645,524
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 524 that divides 524 without a remainder.
1,2,4,131,262,524
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 645,524 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 645,524 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 742,798
2 | 742, 798 |
7 | 371, 399 |
53, 57 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 53 x 57 = 42294
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42294
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 645/742,524/798 is 1/42294
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 742,798 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(742,798) = 14
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(742,798) x common factors =14 x 1 = 14
LCM(742,798) = ( 742 × 798 ) / 14
LCM(742,798) = 592116 / 14
LCM(742,798) = 42294
