Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 465/87,610/1987
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 465,610
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 465,610 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 87,1987 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 87,1987 is 172869 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 465,610
5 | 465, 610 |
93, 122 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

List of positive integer factors of 465 that divides 465 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,31,93,155,465
Factors of 610
List of positive integer factors of 610 that divides 610 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,61,122,305,610
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 465,610 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 465,610 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,1987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 172869
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/172869
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 465/87,610/1987 is 5/172869
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 87,1987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,1987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,1987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,1987) = ( 87 × 1987 ) / 1
LCM(87,1987) = 172869 / 1
LCM(87,1987) = 172869
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
