Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 942/39,1823/299
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 942,1823
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 942,1823 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 39,299 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 39,299 is 897 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 942,1823
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 1823
List of positive integer factors of 1823 that divides 1823 without a remainder.
1,1823
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 942,1823 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 942,1823 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,299
13 | 39, 299 |
3, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 3 x 23 = 897
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/897
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 942/39,1823/299 is 1/897
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 39,299 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,299) = 13
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,299) x common factors =13 x 1 = 13
LCM(39,299) = ( 39 × 299 ) / 13
LCM(39,299) = 11661 / 13
LCM(39,299) = 897
