Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 300/74,293/3685
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 300,293
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 300,293 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 74,3685 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 74,3685 is 272690 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 300,293
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 300 that divides 300 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,25,30,50,60,75,100,150,300
Factors of 293
List of positive integer factors of 293 that divides 293 without a remainder.
1,293
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 300,293 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 300,293 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,3685
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 272690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/272690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 300/74,293/3685 is 1/272690
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 74,3685 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,3685) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,3685) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(74,3685) = ( 74 × 3685 ) / 1
LCM(74,3685) = 272690 / 1
LCM(74,3685) = 272690
