Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2018/59,3347/488
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 2018,3347
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2018,3347 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 59,488 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 59,488 is 28792 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2018,3347
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 2018 that divides 2018 without a remainder.
1,2,1009,2018
Factors of 3347
List of positive integer factors of 3347 that divides 3347 without a remainder.
1,3347
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2018,3347 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2018,3347 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,488
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28792
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28792
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2018/59,3347/488 is 1/28792
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 59,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,488) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,488) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,488) = ( 59 × 488 ) / 1
LCM(59,488) = 28792 / 1
LCM(59,488) = 28792
