Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3965/74,2869/866
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 3965,2869
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3965,2869 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 74,866 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 74,866 is 32042 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3965,2869
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 2869
List of positive integer factors of 2869 that divides 2869 without a remainder.
1,19,151,2869
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3965,2869 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3965,2869 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,866
2 | 74, 866 |
37, 433 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 433 = 32042
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/32042
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3965/74,2869/866 is 1/32042
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 74,866 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,866) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,866) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(74,866) = ( 74 × 866 ) / 2
LCM(74,866) = 64084 / 2
LCM(74,866) = 32042
