Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 280/70,407/2750
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 280,407
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 280,407 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 70,2750 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 70,2750 is 19250 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 280,407
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,7,8,10,14,20,28,35,40,56,70,140,280
Factors of 407
List of positive integer factors of 407 that divides 407 without a remainder.
1,11,37,407
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 280,407 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 280,407 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,2750
2 | 70, 2750 |
5 | 35, 1375 |
7, 275 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 7 x 275 = 19250
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19250
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 280/70,407/2750 is 1/19250
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 70,2750 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,2750) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,2750) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(70,2750) = ( 70 × 2750 ) / 10
LCM(70,2750) = 192500 / 10
LCM(70,2750) = 19250
