Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6772/51,2594/797
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 6772,2594
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6772,2594 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,797 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,797 is 40647 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6772,2594
2 | 6772, 2594 |
3386, 1297 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 2594
List of positive integer factors of 2594 that divides 2594 without a remainder.
1,2,1297,2594
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6772,2594 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6772,2594 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 40647
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/40647
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6772/51,2594/797 is 2/40647
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 51,797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,797) = ( 51 × 797 ) / 1
LCM(51,797) = 40647 / 1
LCM(51,797) = 40647
