Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 275/460,2245/509
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 275,2245
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 275,2245 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 460,509 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 460,509 is 234140 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 275,2245
5 | 275, 2245 |
55, 449 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

Factors of 2245
List of positive integer factors of 2245 that divides 2245 without a remainder.
1,5,449,2245
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 275,2245 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 275,2245 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 460,509
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 234140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/234140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 275/460,2245/509 is 5/234140
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 460,509 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(460,509) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(460,509) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(460,509) = ( 460 × 509 ) / 1
LCM(460,509) = 234140 / 1
LCM(460,509) = 234140
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
