Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 772/73,990/756
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 772,990
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 772,990 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 73,756 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 73,756 is 55188 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 772,990
2 | 772, 990 |
386, 495 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 990
List of positive integer factors of 990 that divides 990 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,9,10,11,15,18,22,30,33,45,55,66,90,99,110,165,198,330,495,990
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 772,990 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 772,990 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,756
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 55188
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/55188
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 772/73,990/756 is 2/55188
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 73,756 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,756) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,756) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,756) = ( 73 × 756 ) / 1
LCM(73,756) = 55188 / 1
LCM(73,756) = 55188
