Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 225/958,1606/687
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 225,1606
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 225,1606 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 958,687 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 958,687 is 658146 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 225,1606
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,5,9,15,25,45,75,225
Factors of 1606
List of positive integer factors of 1606 that divides 1606 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,73,146,803,1606
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 225,1606 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 225,1606 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 958,687
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 658146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/658146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 225/958,1606/687 is 1/658146
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 958,687 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(958,687) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(958,687) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(958,687) = ( 958 × 687 ) / 1
LCM(958,687) = 658146 / 1
LCM(958,687) = 658146
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
