Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7439/83,3847/172
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 7439,3847
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7439,3847 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 83,172 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 83,172 is 14276 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7439,3847
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 7439 that divides 7439 without a remainder.
1,43,173,7439
Factors of 3847
List of positive integer factors of 3847 that divides 3847 without a remainder.
1,3847
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7439,3847 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7439,3847 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,172
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14276
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14276
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7439/83,3847/172 is 1/14276
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 83,172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,172) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(83,172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(83,172) = ( 83 × 172 ) / 1
LCM(83,172) = 14276 / 1
LCM(83,172) = 14276
