Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 773/212,184/542
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 773,184
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 773,184 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 212,542 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 212,542 is 57452 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 773,184
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,8,23,46,92,184
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 773,184 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 773,184 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 212,542
2 | 212, 542 |
106, 271 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 106 x 271 = 57452
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/57452
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 773/212,184/542 is 1/57452
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 212,542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(212,542) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(212,542) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(212,542) = ( 212 × 542 ) / 2
LCM(212,542) = 114904 / 2
LCM(212,542) = 57452
