Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 250/371,6921/942
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 250,6921
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 250,6921 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 371,942 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 371,942 is 349482 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 250,6921
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 250 that divides 250 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,25,50,125,250
Factors of 6921
List of positive integer factors of 6921 that divides 6921 without a remainder.
1,3,9,769,2307,6921
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 250,6921 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 250,6921 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 371,942
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 349482
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/349482
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 250/371,6921/942 is 1/349482
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 371,942 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,942) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,942) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,942) = ( 371 × 942 ) / 1
LCM(371,942) = 349482 / 1
LCM(371,942) = 349482
