Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 759/17,713/120
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 759,713
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 759,713 is 23 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,120 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,120 is 2040 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 759,713
23 | 759, 713 |
33, 31 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23

List of positive integer factors of 759 that divides 759 without a remainder.
1,3,11,23,33,69,253,759
Factors of 713
List of positive integer factors of 713 that divides 713 without a remainder.
1,23,31,713
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 759,713 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 759,713 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,120
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/2040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 759/17,713/120 is 23/2040
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 17,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,120) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,120) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,120) = ( 17 × 120 ) / 1
LCM(17,120) = 2040 / 1
LCM(17,120) = 2040
