Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3692/231,1571/202
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 3692,1571
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3692,1571 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 231,202 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 231,202 is 46662 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3692,1571
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 3692 that divides 3692 without a remainder.
1,2,4,13,26,52,71,142,284,923,1846,3692
Factors of 1571
List of positive integer factors of 1571 that divides 1571 without a remainder.
1,1571
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3692,1571 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3692,1571 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,202
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 46662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3692/231,1571/202 is 1/46662
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 231,202 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,202) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,202) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,202) = ( 231 × 202 ) / 1
LCM(231,202) = 46662 / 1
LCM(231,202) = 46662
