Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 378/512,3623/983
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 378,3623
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 378,3623 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 512,983 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 512,983 is 503296 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 378,3623
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 3623
List of positive integer factors of 3623 that divides 3623 without a remainder.
1,3623
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 378,3623 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 378,3623 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 512,983
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 503296
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/503296
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 378/512,3623/983 is 1/503296
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 512,983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(512,983) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(512,983) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(512,983) = ( 512 × 983 ) / 1
LCM(512,983) = 503296 / 1
LCM(512,983) = 503296
