Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 677/752,972/154
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 677,972
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 677,972 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 752,154 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 752,154 is 57904 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 677,972
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,27,36,54,81,108,162,243,324,486,972
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 677,972 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 677,972 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 752,154
2 | 752, 154 |
376, 77 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 376 x 77 = 57904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/57904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 677/752,972/154 is 1/57904
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 752,154 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(752,154) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(752,154) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(752,154) = ( 752 × 154 ) / 2
LCM(752,154) = 115808 / 2
LCM(752,154) = 57904
