Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 135/203,715/666
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 135,715
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 135,715 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 203,666 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 203,666 is 135198 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 135,715
5 | 135, 715 |
27, 143 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,3,5,9,15,27,45,135
Factors of 715
List of positive integer factors of 715 that divides 715 without a remainder.
1,5,11,13,55,65,143,715
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 135,715 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 135,715 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 203,666
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 135198
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/135198
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 135/203,715/666 is 5/135198
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 203,666 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(203,666) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(203,666) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(203,666) = ( 203 × 666 ) / 1
LCM(203,666) = 135198 / 1
LCM(203,666) = 135198
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
