Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 416/187,1875/840
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 416,1875
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 416,1875 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 187,840 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 187,840 is 157080 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 416,1875
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 1875 that divides 1875 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,25,75,125,375,625,1875
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 416,1875 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 416,1875 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 187,840
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 416/187,1875/840 is 1/157080
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 187,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,840) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,840) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(187,840) = ( 187 × 840 ) / 1
LCM(187,840) = 157080 / 1
LCM(187,840) = 157080
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
