Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 771/43,968/1686
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 771,968
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 771,968 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,1686 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,1686 is 72498 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 771,968
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 771 that divides 771 without a remainder.
1,3,257,771
Factors of 968
List of positive integer factors of 968 that divides 968 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88,121,242,484,968
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 771,968 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 771,968 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,1686
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 72498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/72498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 771/43,968/1686 is 1/72498
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 43,1686 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,1686) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,1686) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,1686) = ( 43 × 1686 ) / 1
LCM(43,1686) = 72498 / 1
LCM(43,1686) = 72498
