Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4587/89,2597/943
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 4587,2597
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4587,2597 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 89,943 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 89,943 is 83927 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4587,2597
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4587,2597 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4587,2597 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 89,943
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 83927
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83927
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4587/89,2597/943 is 1/83927
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 89,943 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(89,943) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(89,943) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(89,943) = ( 89 × 943 ) / 1
LCM(89,943) = 83927 / 1
LCM(89,943) = 83927
