Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3737/49,1963/662
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 3737,1963
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3737,1963 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 49,662 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 49,662 is 32438 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3737,1963
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,37,101,3737
Factors of 1963
List of positive integer factors of 1963 that divides 1963 without a remainder.
1,13,151,1963
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3737,1963 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3737,1963 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,662
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 32438
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32438
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3737/49,1963/662 is 1/32438
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 49,662 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,662) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,662) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,662) = ( 49 × 662 ) / 1
LCM(49,662) = 32438 / 1
LCM(49,662) = 32438
