Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 977/52,1853/760
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 977,1853
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 977,1853 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 52,760 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 52,760 is 9880 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 977,1853
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 1853
List of positive integer factors of 1853 that divides 1853 without a remainder.
1,17,109,1853
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 977,1853 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 977,1853 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,760
2 | 52, 760 |
2 | 26, 380 |
13, 190 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 13 x 190 = 9880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 977/52,1853/760 is 1/9880
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 52,760 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,760) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,760) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(52,760) = ( 52 × 760 ) / 4
LCM(52,760) = 39520 / 4
LCM(52,760) = 9880
