Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 376/536,533/581
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 376,533
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 376,533 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 536,581 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 536,581 is 311416 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 376,533
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,8,47,94,188,376
Factors of 533
List of positive integer factors of 533 that divides 533 without a remainder.
1,13,41,533
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 376,533 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 376,533 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 536,581
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 311416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/311416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 376/536,533/581 is 1/311416
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 536,581 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(536,581) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(536,581) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(536,581) = ( 536 × 581 ) / 1
LCM(536,581) = 311416 / 1
LCM(536,581) = 311416
