Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 738/95,6649/987
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 738,6649
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 738,6649 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 95,987 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 95,987 is 93765 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 738,6649
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,6,9,18,41,82,123,246,369,738
Factors of 6649
List of positive integer factors of 6649 that divides 6649 without a remainder.
1,61,109,6649
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 738,6649 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 738,6649 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 93765
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/93765
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 738/95,6649/987 is 1/93765
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 95,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(95,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(95,987) = ( 95 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(95,987) = 93765 / 1
LCM(95,987) = 93765
