Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 764/480,7931/162
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 764,7931
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 764,7931 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 480,162 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 480,162 is 12960 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 764,7931
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,7,11,77,103,721,1133,7931
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 764,7931 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 764,7931 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 480,162
2 | 480, 162 |
3 | 240, 81 |
80, 27 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 80 x 27 = 12960
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12960
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 764/480,7931/162 is 1/12960
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 480,162 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(480,162) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(480,162) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(480,162) = ( 480 × 162 ) / 6
LCM(480,162) = 77760 / 6
LCM(480,162) = 12960
