Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 843/48,940/9217
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 843,940
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 843,940 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 48,9217 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 48,9217 is 442416 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 843,940
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 843 that divides 843 without a remainder.
1,3,281,843
Factors of 940
List of positive integer factors of 940 that divides 940 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,47,94,188,235,470,940
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 843,940 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 843,940 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,9217
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 442416
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/442416
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 843/48,940/9217 is 1/442416
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 48,9217 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,9217) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,9217) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(48,9217) = ( 48 × 9217 ) / 1
LCM(48,9217) = 442416 / 1
LCM(48,9217) = 442416
