Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1341/189,3940/901
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 1341,3940
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1341,3940 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 189,901 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 189,901 is 170289 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1341,3940
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 3940
List of positive integer factors of 3940 that divides 3940 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,197,394,788,985,1970,3940
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1341,3940 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1341,3940 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 189,901
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 170289
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/170289
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1341/189,3940/901 is 1/170289
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 189,901 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,901) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,901) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(189,901) = ( 189 × 901 ) / 1
LCM(189,901) = 170289 / 1
LCM(189,901) = 170289
