Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3047/16,8662/351
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 3047,8662
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3047,8662 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 16,351 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 16,351 is 5616 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3047,8662
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 8662
List of positive integer factors of 8662 that divides 8662 without a remainder.
1,2,61,71,122,142,4331,8662
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3047,8662 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3047,8662 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,351
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5616
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5616
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3047/16,8662/351 is 1/5616
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 16,351 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,351) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,351) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,351) = ( 16 × 351 ) / 1
LCM(16,351) = 5616 / 1
LCM(16,351) = 5616
