Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 272/95,499/628
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 272,499
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 272,499 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 95,628 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 95,628 is 59660 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 272,499
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 272 that divides 272 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,17,34,68,136,272
Factors of 499
List of positive integer factors of 499 that divides 499 without a remainder.
1,499
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 272,499 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 272,499 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,628
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 272/95,499/628 is 1/59660
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 95,628 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,628) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(95,628) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(95,628) = ( 95 × 628 ) / 1
LCM(95,628) = 59660 / 1
LCM(95,628) = 59660
