Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 765/40,429/8001
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 765,429
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 765,429 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 40,8001 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 40,8001 is 320040 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 765,429
3 | 765, 429 |
255, 143 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,5,9,15,17,45,51,85,153,255,765
Factors of 429
List of positive integer factors of 429 that divides 429 without a remainder.
1,3,11,13,33,39,143,429
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 765,429 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 765,429 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,8001
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 320040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/320040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 765/40,429/8001 is 3/320040
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 40,8001 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,8001) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,8001) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,8001) = ( 40 × 8001 ) / 1
LCM(40,8001) = 320040 / 1
LCM(40,8001) = 320040
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
