Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 294/80,554/2207
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 294,554
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 294,554 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 80,2207 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 80,2207 is 176560 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 294,554
2 | 294, 554 |
147, 277 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 294

1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42,49,98,147,294
Factors of 554
List of positive integer factors of 554 that divides 554 without a remainder.
1,2,277,554
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 294,554 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 294,554 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 80,2207
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 176560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/176560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 294/80,554/2207 is 2/176560
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 80,2207 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(80,2207) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(80,2207) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(80,2207) = ( 80 × 2207 ) / 1
LCM(80,2207) = 176560 / 1
LCM(80,2207) = 176560
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
