Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 795/244,1965/455
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 795,1965
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 795,1965 is 15 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 244,455 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 244,455 is 111020 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 795,1965
3 | 795, 1965 |
5 | 265, 655 |
53, 131 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 5 = 15

1,3,5,15,131,393,655,1965
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 795,1965 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 795,1965 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 244,455
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 111020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/111020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 795/244,1965/455 is 15/111020
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 244,455 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,455) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,455) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(244,455) = ( 244 × 455 ) / 1
LCM(244,455) = 111020 / 1
LCM(244,455) = 111020
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
