Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 548/43,5935/721
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 548,5935
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 548,5935 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,721 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,721 is 31003 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 548,5935
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 5935
List of positive integer factors of 5935 that divides 5935 without a remainder.
1,5,1187,5935
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 548,5935 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 548,5935 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31003
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31003
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 548/43,5935/721 is 1/31003
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 43,721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,721) = ( 43 × 721 ) / 1
LCM(43,721) = 31003 / 1
LCM(43,721) = 31003
