Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 195/307,3425/942
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 195,3425
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 195,3425 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 307,942 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 307,942 is 289194 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 195,3425
5 | 195, 3425 |
39, 685 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,3,5,13,15,39,65,195
Factors of 3425
List of positive integer factors of 3425 that divides 3425 without a remainder.
1,5,25,137,685,3425
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 195,3425 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 195,3425 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 307,942
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 289194
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/289194
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 195/307,3425/942 is 5/289194
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 307,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(307,942) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(307,942) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(307,942) = ( 307 × 942 ) / 1
LCM(307,942) = 289194 / 1
LCM(307,942) = 289194
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
