Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5517/31,4418/974
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 5517,4418
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5517,4418 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 31,974 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 31,974 is 30194 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5517,4418
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,9,613,1839,5517
Factors of 4418
List of positive integer factors of 4418 that divides 4418 without a remainder.
1,2,47,94,2209,4418
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5517,4418 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5517,4418 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,974
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30194
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30194
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5517/31,4418/974 is 1/30194
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 31,974 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,974) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,974) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,974) = ( 31 × 974 ) / 1
LCM(31,974) = 30194 / 1
LCM(31,974) = 30194
