Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 175/30,261/2499
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 175,261
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 175,261 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 30,2499 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 30,2499 is 24990 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 175,261
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 175 that divides 175 without a remainder.
1,5,7,25,35,175
Factors of 261
List of positive integer factors of 261 that divides 261 without a remainder.
1,3,9,29,87,261
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 175,261 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 175,261 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 30,2499
3 | 30, 2499 |
10, 833 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 10 x 833 = 24990
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24990
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 175/30,261/2499 is 1/24990
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 30,2499 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(30,2499) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(30,2499) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(30,2499) = ( 30 × 2499 ) / 3
LCM(30,2499) = 74970 / 3
LCM(30,2499) = 24990
