Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1991/19,8681/341
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 1991,8681
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1991,8681 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 19,341 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 19,341 is 6479 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1991,8681
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 1991 that divides 1991 without a remainder.
1,11,181,1991
Factors of 8681
List of positive integer factors of 8681 that divides 8681 without a remainder.
1,8681
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1991,8681 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1991,8681 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,341
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6479
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6479
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1991/19,8681/341 is 1/6479
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 19,341 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,341) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,341) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,341) = ( 19 × 341 ) / 1
LCM(19,341) = 6479 / 1
LCM(19,341) = 6479
