Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 580/37,620/1522
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 580,620
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 580,620 is 20 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,1522 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,1522 is 56314 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 580,620
2 | 580, 620 |
2 | 290, 310 |
5 | 145, 155 |
29, 31 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 = 20

1,2,4,5,10,20,31,62,124,155,310,620
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 580,620 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 580,620 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,1522
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 56314
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/56314
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 580/37,620/1522 is 20/56314
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 37,1522 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,1522) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,1522) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,1522) = ( 37 × 1522 ) / 1
LCM(37,1522) = 56314 / 1
LCM(37,1522) = 56314
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
