Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 765/672,724/246
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 765,724
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 765,724 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 672,246 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 672,246 is 27552 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 765,724
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 724
List of positive integer factors of 724 that divides 724 without a remainder.
1,2,4,181,362,724
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 765,724 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 765,724 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 672,246
2 | 672, 246 |
3 | 336, 123 |
112, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 112 x 41 = 27552
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/27552
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 765/672,724/246 is 1/27552
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 672,246 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(672,246) = 6
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(672,246) x common factors =6 x 1 = 6
LCM(672,246) = ( 672 × 246 ) / 6
LCM(672,246) = 165312 / 6
LCM(672,246) = 27552
