Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3834/71,1147/838
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 3834,1147
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3834,1147 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 71,838 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 71,838 is 59498 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3834,1147
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54,71,142,213,426,639,1278,1917,3834
Factors of 1147
List of positive integer factors of 1147 that divides 1147 without a remainder.
1,31,37,1147
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3834,1147 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3834,1147 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,838
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3834/71,1147/838 is 1/59498
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 71,838 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,838) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,838) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,838) = ( 71 × 838 ) / 1
LCM(71,838) = 59498 / 1
LCM(71,838) = 59498
