Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2664/15,1281/182
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 2664,1281
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2664,1281 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 15,182 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 15,182 is 2730 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2664,1281
3 | 2664, 1281 |
888, 427 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

List of positive integer factors of 1281 that divides 1281 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21,61,183,427,1281
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2664,1281 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2664,1281 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,182
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2730
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2730
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2664/15,1281/182 is 3/2730
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 15,182 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,182) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,182) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,182) = ( 15 × 182 ) / 1
LCM(15,182) = 2730 / 1
LCM(15,182) = 2730
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
