Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 868/124,571/746
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 868,571
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 868,571 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 124,746 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 124,746 is 46252 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 868,571
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,7,14,28,31,62,124,217,434,868
Factors of 571
List of positive integer factors of 571 that divides 571 without a remainder.
1,571
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 868,571 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 868,571 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 124,746
2 | 124, 746 |
62, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 62 x 373 = 46252
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46252
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 868/124,571/746 is 1/46252
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 124,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(124,746) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(124,746) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(124,746) = ( 124 × 746 ) / 2
LCM(124,746) = 92504 / 2
LCM(124,746) = 46252
