Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 733/532,175/220
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 733,175
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 733,175 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 532,220 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 532,220 is 29260 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 733,175
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,733
Factors of 175
List of positive integer factors of 175 that divides 175 without a remainder.
1,5,7,25,35,175
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 733,175 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 733,175 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 532,220
2 | 532, 220 |
2 | 266, 110 |
133, 55 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 133 x 55 = 29260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 733/532,175/220 is 1/29260
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 532,220 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(532,220) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(532,220) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(532,220) = ( 532 × 220 ) / 4
LCM(532,220) = 117040 / 4
LCM(532,220) = 29260
