Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 750/126,801/956
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 750,801
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 750,801 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 126,956 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 126,956 is 60228 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 750,801
3 | 750, 801 |
250, 267 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 801
List of positive integer factors of 801 that divides 801 without a remainder.
1,3,9,89,267,801
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 750,801 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 750,801 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 126,956
2 | 126, 956 |
63, 478 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 63 x 478 = 60228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/60228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 750/126,801/956 is 3/60228
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 126,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(126,956) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(126,956) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(126,956) = ( 126 × 956 ) / 2
LCM(126,956) = 120456 / 2
LCM(126,956) = 60228
