Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1235/20,1662/363
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 1235,1662
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1235,1662 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,363 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,363 is 7260 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1235,1662
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,5,13,19,65,95,247,1235
Factors of 1662
List of positive integer factors of 1662 that divides 1662 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,277,554,831,1662
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1235,1662 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1235,1662 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,363
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1235/20,1662/363 is 1/7260
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 20,363 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,363) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,363) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,363) = ( 20 × 363 ) / 1
LCM(20,363) = 7260 / 1
LCM(20,363) = 7260
