Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 227/23,5287/746
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 227,5287
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 227,5287 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,746 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,746 is 17158 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 227,5287
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 227 that divides 227 without a remainder.
1,227
Factors of 5287
List of positive integer factors of 5287 that divides 5287 without a remainder.
1,17,311,5287
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 227,5287 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 227,5287 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 227/23,5287/746 is 1/17158
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 23,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,746) = ( 23 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(23,746) = 17158 / 1
LCM(23,746) = 17158
