Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3478/52,2129/599
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 3478,2129
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3478,2129 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 52,599 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 52,599 is 31148 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3478,2129
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,37,47,74,94,1739,3478
Factors of 2129
List of positive integer factors of 2129 that divides 2129 without a remainder.
1,2129
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3478,2129 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3478,2129 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3478/52,2129/599 is 1/31148
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 52,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(52,599) = ( 52 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(52,599) = 31148 / 1
LCM(52,599) = 31148
