Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 631/245,688/271
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 631,688
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 631,688 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 245,271 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 245,271 is 66395 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 631,688
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 688
List of positive integer factors of 688 that divides 688 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,43,86,172,344,688
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 631,688 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 631,688 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 245,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 66395
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/66395
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 631/245,688/271 is 1/66395
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 245,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(245,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(245,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(245,271) = ( 245 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(245,271) = 66395 / 1
LCM(245,271) = 66395
