Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 375/31,575/904
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 375,575
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 375,575 is 25 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,904 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,904 is 28024 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 375,575
5 | 375, 575 |
5 | 75, 115 |
15, 23 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 x 5 = 25

List of positive integer factors of 375 that divides 375 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,25,75,125,375
Factors of 575
List of positive integer factors of 575 that divides 575 without a remainder.
1,5,23,25,115,575
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 375,575 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 375,575 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,904
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28024
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/28024
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 375/31,575/904 is 25/28024
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 31,904 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,904) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,904) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,904) = ( 31 × 904 ) / 1
LCM(31,904) = 28024 / 1
LCM(31,904) = 28024
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
