Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 87/402,754/213
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 87,754
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 87,754 is 29 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 402,213 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 402,213 is 28542 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 87,754
29 | 87, 754 |
3, 26 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 29 = 29

1,3,29,87
Factors of 754
List of positive integer factors of 754 that divides 754 without a remainder.
1,2,13,26,29,58,377,754
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 87,754 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 87,754 is 29.
Lets's calculate LCM of 402,213
3 | 402, 213 |
134, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 134 x 71 = 28542
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/28542
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 87/402,754/213 is 29/28542
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 402,213 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(402,213) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(402,213) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(402,213) = ( 402 × 213 ) / 3
LCM(402,213) = 85626 / 3
LCM(402,213) = 28542
