Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 621/31,3477/249
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 621,3477
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 621,3477 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,249 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,249 is 7719 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 621,3477
3 | 621, 3477 |
207, 1159 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

Factors of 3477
List of positive integer factors of 3477 that divides 3477 without a remainder.
1,3,19,57,61,183,1159,3477
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 621,3477 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 621,3477 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7719
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7719
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 621/31,3477/249 is 3/7719
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 31,249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,249) = ( 31 × 249 ) / 1
LCM(31,249) = 7719 / 1
LCM(31,249) = 7719
