Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 725/49,426/389
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 725,426
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 725,426 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 49,389 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 49,389 is 19061 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 725,426
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 725 that divides 725 without a remainder.
1,5,25,29,145,725
Factors of 426
List of positive integer factors of 426 that divides 426 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,71,142,213,426
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 725,426 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 725,426 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,389
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19061
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19061
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 725/49,426/389 is 1/19061
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 49,389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,389) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,389) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,389) = ( 49 × 389 ) / 1
LCM(49,389) = 19061 / 1
LCM(49,389) = 19061
