Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8936/34,1921/672
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 8936,1921
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8936,1921 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 34,672 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 34,672 is 11424 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8936,1921
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8936,1921 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8936,1921 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 34,672
2 | 34, 672 |
17, 336 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 17 x 336 = 11424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8936/34,1921/672 is 1/11424
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 34,672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(34,672) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(34,672) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(34,672) = ( 34 × 672 ) / 2
LCM(34,672) = 22848 / 2
LCM(34,672) = 11424
