Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 415/278,6215/747
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 415,6215
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 415,6215 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 278,747 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 278,747 is 207666 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 415,6215
5 | 415, 6215 |

1,5,83,415
Factors of 6215
List of positive integer factors of 6215 that divides 6215 without a remainder.
1,5,11,55,113,565,1243,6215
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 415,6215 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 415,6215 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 278,747
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 207666
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/207666
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 415/278,6215/747 is 5/207666
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 278,747 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(278,747) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(278,747) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(278,747) = ( 278 × 747 ) / 1
LCM(278,747) = 207666 / 1
LCM(278,747) = 207666
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
