Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 778/816,974/412
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 778,974
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 778,974 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 816,412 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 816,412 is 84048 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 778,974
2 | 778, 974 |
389, 487 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 974
List of positive integer factors of 974 that divides 974 without a remainder.
1,2,487,974
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 778,974 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 778,974 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 816,412
2 | 816, 412 |
2 | 408, 206 |
204, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 204 x 103 = 84048
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/84048
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 778/816,974/412 is 2/84048
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 816,412 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(816,412) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(816,412) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(816,412) = ( 816 × 412 ) / 4
LCM(816,412) = 336192 / 4
LCM(816,412) = 84048
