Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 937/668,387/521
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 937,387
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 937,387 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 668,521 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 668,521 is 348028 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 937,387
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,937
Factors of 387
List of positive integer factors of 387 that divides 387 without a remainder.
1,3,9,43,129,387
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 937,387 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 937,387 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 668,521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 348028
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/348028
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 937/668,387/521 is 1/348028
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 668,521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(668,521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(668,521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(668,521) = ( 668 × 521 ) / 1
LCM(668,521) = 348028 / 1
LCM(668,521) = 348028
