Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8285/49,8215/744
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 8285,8215
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8285,8215 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 49,744 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 49,744 is 36456 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8285,8215
5 | 8285, 8215 |
1657, 1643 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5

1,5,1657,8285
Factors of 8215
List of positive integer factors of 8215 that divides 8215 without a remainder.
1,5,31,53,155,265,1643,8215
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8285,8215 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8285,8215 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,744
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36456
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/36456
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8285/49,8215/744 is 5/36456
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 49,744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,744) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,744) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,744) = ( 49 × 744 ) / 1
LCM(49,744) = 36456 / 1
LCM(49,744) = 36456
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
