Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4019/74,1480/344
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 4019,1480
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4019,1480 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 74,344 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 74,344 is 12728 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4019,1480
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,8,10,20,37,40,74,148,185,296,370,740,1480
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4019,1480 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4019,1480 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,344
2 | 74, 344 |
37, 172 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 172 = 12728
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12728
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4019/74,1480/344 is 1/12728
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 74,344 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,344) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,344) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(74,344) = ( 74 × 344 ) / 2
LCM(74,344) = 25456 / 2
LCM(74,344) = 12728
