Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 500/539,2959/7967
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 500,2959
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 500,2959 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 539,7967 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 539,7967 is 4294213 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 500,2959
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,10,20,25,50,100,125,250,500
Factors of 2959
List of positive integer factors of 2959 that divides 2959 without a remainder.
1,11,269,2959
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 500,2959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 500,2959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 539,7967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4294213
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4294213
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 500/539,2959/7967 is 1/4294213
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 539,7967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,7967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,7967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,7967) = ( 539 × 7967 ) / 1
LCM(539,7967) = 4294213 / 1
LCM(539,7967) = 4294213
