Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 77/532,649/112
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 77,649
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 77,649 is 11 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 532,112 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 532,112 is 2128 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 77,649
11 | 77, 649 |
7, 59 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 = 11
Factors of 77

1,7,11,77
Factors of 649
List of positive integer factors of 649 that divides 649 without a remainder.
1,11,59,649
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 77,649 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 77,649 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 532,112
2 | 532, 112 |
2 | 266, 56 |
7 | 133, 28 |
19, 4 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 19 x 4 = 2128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/2128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 77/532,649/112 is 11/2128
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 532,112 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(532,112) = 28
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(532,112) x common factors =28 x 1 = 28
LCM(532,112) = ( 532 × 112 ) / 28
LCM(532,112) = 59584 / 28
LCM(532,112) = 2128
