Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 475/43,272/4646
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 475,272
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 475,272 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,4646 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,4646 is 199778 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 475,272
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,5,19,25,95,475
Factors of 272
List of positive integer factors of 272 that divides 272 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,17,34,68,136,272
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 475,272 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 475,272 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,4646
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 199778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/199778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 475/43,272/4646 is 1/199778
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 43,4646 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,4646) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,4646) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,4646) = ( 43 × 4646 ) / 1
LCM(43,4646) = 199778 / 1
LCM(43,4646) = 199778
