Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 375/13,600/679
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 375,600
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 375,600 is 75 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 13,679 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 13,679 is 8827 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 375,600
3 | 375, 600 |
5 | 125, 200 |
5 | 25, 40 |
5, 8 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 5 = 75

Factors of 600
List of positive integer factors of 600 that divides 600 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,20,24,25,30,40,50,60,75,100,120,150,200,300,600
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 375,600 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 375,600 is 75.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,679
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8827
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 75/8827
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 375/13,600/679 is 75/8827
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 13,679 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,679) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,679) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,679) = ( 13 × 679 ) / 1
LCM(13,679) = 8827 / 1
LCM(13,679) = 8827
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
