Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 225/53,245/3684
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 225,245
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 225,245 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 53,3684 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 53,3684 is 195252 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 225,245
5 | 225, 245 |
45, 49 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

Factors of 245
List of positive integer factors of 245 that divides 245 without a remainder.
1,5,7,35,49,245
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 225,245 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 225,245 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,3684
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 195252
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/195252
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 225/53,245/3684 is 5/195252
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 53,3684 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,3684) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,3684) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,3684) = ( 53 × 3684 ) / 1
LCM(53,3684) = 195252 / 1
LCM(53,3684) = 195252
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
