Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 676/42,717/4059
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 676,717
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 676,717 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 42,4059 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 42,4059 is 56826 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 676,717
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,13,26,52,169,338,676
Factors of 717
List of positive integer factors of 717 that divides 717 without a remainder.
1,3,239,717
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 676,717 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 676,717 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,4059
3 | 42, 4059 |
14, 1353 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 14 x 1353 = 56826
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/56826
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 676/42,717/4059 is 1/56826
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 42,4059 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,4059) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,4059) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(42,4059) = ( 42 × 4059 ) / 3
LCM(42,4059) = 170478 / 3
LCM(42,4059) = 56826
