Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 323/40,546/3617
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 323,546
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 323,546 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 40,3617 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 40,3617 is 144680 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 323,546
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,17,19,323
Factors of 546
List of positive integer factors of 546 that divides 546 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,7,13,14,21,26,39,42,78,91,182,273,546
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 323,546 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 323,546 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,3617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 144680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/144680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 323/40,546/3617 is 1/144680
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 40,3617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,3617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,3617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,3617) = ( 40 × 3617 ) / 1
LCM(40,3617) = 144680 / 1
LCM(40,3617) = 144680
