Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 575/52,8542/711
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 575,8542
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 575,8542 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 52,711 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 52,711 is 36972 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 575,8542
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 8542
List of positive integer factors of 8542 that divides 8542 without a remainder.
1,2,4271,8542
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 575,8542 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 575,8542 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 52,711
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36972
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36972
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 575/52,8542/711 is 1/36972
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 52,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(52,711) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(52,711) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(52,711) = ( 52 × 711 ) / 1
LCM(52,711) = 36972 / 1
LCM(52,711) = 36972
