Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 785/89,875/124
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 785,875
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 785,875 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 89,124 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 89,124 is 11036 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 785,875
5 | 785, 875 |
157, 175 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

Factors of 875
List of positive integer factors of 875 that divides 875 without a remainder.
1,5,7,25,35,125,175,875
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 785,875 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 785,875 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 89,124
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/11036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 785/89,875/124 is 5/11036
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 89,124 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(89,124) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(89,124) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(89,124) = ( 89 × 124 ) / 1
LCM(89,124) = 11036 / 1
LCM(89,124) = 11036
