Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7999/14,3917/274
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 7999,3917
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7999,3917 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 14,274 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 14,274 is 1918 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7999,3917
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 7999 that divides 7999 without a remainder.
1,19,421,7999
Factors of 3917
List of positive integer factors of 3917 that divides 3917 without a remainder.
1,3917
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7999,3917 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7999,3917 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,274
2 | 14, 274 |
7, 137 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 137 = 1918
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1918
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7999/14,3917/274 is 1/1918
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 14,274 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,274) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,274) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(14,274) = ( 14 × 274 ) / 2
LCM(14,274) = 3836 / 2
LCM(14,274) = 1918
