Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 693/37,3320/979
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 693,3320
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 693,3320 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,979 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,979 is 36223 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 693,3320
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40,83,166,332,415,664,830,1660,3320
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 693,3320 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 693,3320 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,979
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36223
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36223
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 693/37,3320/979 is 1/36223
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 37,979 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,979) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,979) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,979) = ( 37 × 979 ) / 1
LCM(37,979) = 36223 / 1
LCM(37,979) = 36223
