Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 26/443,1235/2993
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 26,1235
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 26,1235 is 13 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 443,2993 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 443,2993 is 1325899 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 26,1235
13 | 26, 1235 |

1,5,13,19,65,95,247,1235
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 26,1235 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 26,1235 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 443,2993
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1325899
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/1325899
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 26/443,1235/2993 is 13/1325899
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 443,2993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(443,2993) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(443,2993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(443,2993) = ( 443 × 2993 ) / 1
LCM(443,2993) = 1325899 / 1
LCM(443,2993) = 1325899
