Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3026/17,9937/940
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 3026,9937
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3026,9937 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,940 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,940 is 15980 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3026,9937
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 3026 that divides 3026 without a remainder.
1,2,17,34,89,178,1513,3026
Factors of 9937
List of positive integer factors of 9937 that divides 9937 without a remainder.
1,19,523,9937
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3026,9937 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3026,9937 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3026/17,9937/940 is 1/15980
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 17,940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,940) = ( 17 × 940 ) / 1
LCM(17,940) = 15980 / 1
LCM(17,940) = 15980
