Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 77/412,924/493
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 77,924
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 77,924 is 77 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 412,493 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 412,493 is 203116 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 77,924
7 | 77, 924 |
11 | 11, 132 |
1, 12 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 x 11 = 77

Factors of 924
List of positive integer factors of 924 that divides 924 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,7,11,12,14,21,22,28,33,42,44,66,77,84,132,154,231,308,462,924
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 77,924 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 77,924 is 77.
Lets's calculate LCM of 412,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 203116
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 77/203116
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/412,924/493 is 77/203116
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 412,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(412,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(412,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(412,493) = ( 412 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(412,493) = 203116 / 1
LCM(412,493) = 203116
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
