Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1490/25,3770/431
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 1490,3770
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1490,3770 is 10 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 25,431 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 25,431 is 10775 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1490,3770
2 | 1490, 3770 |
5 | 745, 1885 |
149, 377 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 5 = 10

1,2,5,10,13,26,29,58,65,130,145,290,377,754,1885,3770
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1490,3770 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1490,3770 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 25,431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10775
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/10775
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1490/25,3770/431 is 10/10775
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 25,431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(25,431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(25,431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(25,431) = ( 25 × 431 ) / 1
LCM(25,431) = 10775 / 1
LCM(25,431) = 10775
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
