Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 81/677,6561/1962
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 81,6561
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 81,6561 is 81 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 677,1962 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 677,1962 is 1328274 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 81,6561
3 | 81, 6561 |
3 | 27, 2187 |
3 | 9, 729 |
3 | 3, 243 |
1, 81 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 81

Factors of 6561
List of positive integer factors of 6561 that divides 6561 without a remainder.
1,3,9,27,81,243,729,2187,6561
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 81,6561 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 81,6561 is 81.
Lets's calculate LCM of 677,1962
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1328274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 81/1328274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 81/677,6561/1962 is 81/1328274
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 677,1962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(677,1962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(677,1962) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(677,1962) = ( 677 × 1962 ) / 1
LCM(677,1962) = 1328274 / 1
LCM(677,1962) = 1328274
