Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 649/175,1959/660
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 649,1959
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 649,1959 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 175,660 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 175,660 is 23100 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 649,1959
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 649 that divides 649 without a remainder.
1,11,59,649
Factors of 1959
List of positive integer factors of 1959 that divides 1959 without a remainder.
1,3,653,1959
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 649,1959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 649,1959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 175,660
5 | 175, 660 |
35, 132 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 35 x 132 = 23100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 649/175,1959/660 is 1/23100
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 175,660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(175,660) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(175,660) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(175,660) = ( 175 × 660 ) / 5
LCM(175,660) = 115500 / 5
LCM(175,660) = 23100
