Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3460/849,1513/217
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 3460,1513
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3460,1513 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 849,217 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 849,217 is 184233 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3460,1513
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,10,20,173,346,692,865,1730,3460
Factors of 1513
List of positive integer factors of 1513 that divides 1513 without a remainder.
1,17,89,1513
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3460,1513 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3460,1513 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 849,217
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 184233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/184233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3460/849,1513/217 is 1/184233
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 849,217 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(849,217) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(849,217) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(849,217) = ( 849 × 217 ) / 1
LCM(849,217) = 184233 / 1
LCM(849,217) = 184233
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
