Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1/13,518/37,714/58
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 1,518,714
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1,518,714 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 13,37,58 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 13,37,58 is 27898 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1,518,714
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,6,7,14,17,21,34,42,51,102,119,238,357,714
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1,518,714 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1,518,714 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,37,58
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27898
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/27898
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1/13,518/37,714/58 is 1/27898
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 13,37,58 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,37,58) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,37,58) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,37,58) = ( 13 × 37 × 58 ) / 1
LCM(13,37,58) = 27898 / 1
LCM(13,37,58) = 27898
