Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1983/36,4756/295
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 1983,4756
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1983,4756 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 36,295 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 36,295 is 10620 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1983,4756
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,29,41,58,82,116,164,1189,2378,4756
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1983,4756 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1983,4756 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 36,295
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1983/36,4756/295 is 1/10620
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 36,295 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(36,295) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(36,295) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(36,295) = ( 36 × 295 ) / 1
LCM(36,295) = 10620 / 1
LCM(36,295) = 10620
