Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3857/23,1105/115
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 3857,1105
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3857,1105 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,115 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,115 is 115 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3857,1105
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3857,1105 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3857,1105 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,115
23 | 23, 115 |
1, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 23 x 1 x 5 = 115
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/115
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3857/23,1105/115 is 1/115
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 23,115 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,115) = 23
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,115) x common factors =23 x 1 = 23
LCM(23,115) = ( 23 × 115 ) / 23
LCM(23,115) = 2645 / 23
LCM(23,115) = 115
