Delete Duplicate Photos

Is there any way to delete duplicate photos from the photo app/iCloud and have the deletions synched across all devices? Specifically, anyway to do this through Apple and not a third party app?

If duplicate photos are in series , leave the first photo and hold the shift and key click on reset of duplicate photos to get selected .

Right click on any one of them and click on delete .

The photos will be deleted from the photo library of Mac and all other devices signed in with same Apple ID and password on the same network , as well on iCloud.com
