Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 726/389,2285/759
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 726,2285
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 726,2285 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 389,759 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 389,759 is 295251 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 726,2285
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66,121,242,363,726
Factors of 2285
List of positive integer factors of 2285 that divides 2285 without a remainder.
1,5,457,2285
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 726,2285 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 726,2285 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 389,759
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 295251
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/295251
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 726/389,2285/759 is 1/295251
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 389,759 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(389,759) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(389,759) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(389,759) = ( 389 × 759 ) / 1
LCM(389,759) = 295251 / 1
LCM(389,759) = 295251
