Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3972/101,1663/164
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 3972,1663
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3972,1663 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 101,164 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 101,164 is 16564 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3972,1663
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 3972 that divides 3972 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,331,662,993,1324,1986,3972
Factors of 1663
List of positive integer factors of 1663 that divides 1663 without a remainder.
1,1663
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3972,1663 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3972,1663 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 101,164
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16564
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/16564
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3972/101,1663/164 is 1/16564
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 101,164 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(101,164) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(101,164) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(101,164) = ( 101 × 164 ) / 1
LCM(101,164) = 16564 / 1
LCM(101,164) = 16564
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
