Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3001/960,1204/5737
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 3001,1204
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3001,1204 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 960,5737 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 960,5737 is 5507520 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3001,1204
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 1204
List of positive integer factors of 1204 that divides 1204 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,14,28,43,86,172,301,602,1204
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3001,1204 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3001,1204 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,5737
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5507520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5507520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3001/960,1204/5737 is 1/5507520
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 960,5737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,5737) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,5737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(960,5737) = ( 960 × 5737 ) / 1
LCM(960,5737) = 5507520 / 1
LCM(960,5737) = 5507520
