Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 537/55,519/5367
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 537,519
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 537,519 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,5367 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,5367 is 295185 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 537,519
3 | 537, 519 |

Factors of 519
List of positive integer factors of 519 that divides 519 without a remainder.
1,3,173,519
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 537,519 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 537,519 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,5367
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295185
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/295185
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 537/55,519/5367 is 3/295185
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 55,5367 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,5367) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,5367) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,5367) = ( 55 × 5367 ) / 1
LCM(55,5367) = 295185 / 1
LCM(55,5367) = 295185
