Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 761/196,891/550
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 761,891
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 761,891 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 196,550 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 196,550 is 53900 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 761,891
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 891
List of positive integer factors of 891 that divides 891 without a remainder.
1,3,9,11,27,33,81,99,297,891
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 761,891 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 761,891 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 196,550
2 | 196, 550 |
98, 275 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 98 x 275 = 53900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/53900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 761/196,891/550 is 1/53900
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 196,550 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(196,550) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(196,550) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(196,550) = ( 196 × 550 ) / 2
LCM(196,550) = 107800 / 2
LCM(196,550) = 53900
