Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 240/810,705/251
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 240,705
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 240,705 is 15 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 810,251 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 810,251 is 203310 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 240,705
3 | 240, 705 |
5 | 80, 235 |
16, 47 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 5 = 15

Factors of 705
List of positive integer factors of 705 that divides 705 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,47,141,235,705
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 240,705 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 240,705 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 810,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 203310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/203310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 240/810,705/251 is 15/203310
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 810,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(810,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(810,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(810,251) = ( 810 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(810,251) = 203310 / 1
LCM(810,251) = 203310
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
