Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 402/83,629/1038
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 402,629
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 402,629 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 83,1038 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 83,1038 is 86154 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 402,629
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 402 that divides 402 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,67,134,201,402
Factors of 629
List of positive integer factors of 629 that divides 629 without a remainder.
1,17,37,629
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 402,629 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 402,629 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,1038
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86154
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/86154
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 402/83,629/1038 is 1/86154
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 83,1038 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,1038) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(83,1038) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(83,1038) = ( 83 × 1038 ) / 1
LCM(83,1038) = 86154 / 1
LCM(83,1038) = 86154
