Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 748/991,2007/185
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 748,2007
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 748,2007 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 991,185 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 991,185 is 183335 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 748,2007
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,4,11,17,22,34,44,68,187,374,748
Factors of 2007
List of positive integer factors of 2007 that divides 2007 without a remainder.
1,3,9,223,669,2007
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 748,2007 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 748,2007 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 991,185
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 183335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/183335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 748/991,2007/185 is 1/183335
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 991,185 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(991,185) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(991,185) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(991,185) = ( 991 × 185 ) / 1
LCM(991,185) = 183335 / 1
LCM(991,185) = 183335
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
