Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 751/60,762/168
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 751,762
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 751,762 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 60,168 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 60,168 is 840 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 751,762
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 751

1,751
Factors of 762
List of positive integer factors of 762 that divides 762 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,127,254,381,762
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 751,762 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 751,762 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,168
2 | 60, 168 |
2 | 30, 84 |
3 | 15, 42 |
5, 14 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 14 = 840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 751/60,762/168 is 1/840
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 60,168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,168) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(60,168) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(60,168) = ( 60 × 168 ) / 12
LCM(60,168) = 10080 / 12
LCM(60,168) = 840
