Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 971/96,384/2021
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 971,384
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 971,384 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 96,2021 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 96,2021 is 194016 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 971,384
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,971
Factors of 384
List of positive integer factors of 384 that divides 384 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,32,48,64,96,128,192,384
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 971,384 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 971,384 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,2021
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 194016
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/194016
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 971/96,384/2021 is 1/194016
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 96,2021 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,2021) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,2021) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(96,2021) = ( 96 × 2021 ) / 1
LCM(96,2021) = 194016 / 1
LCM(96,2021) = 194016
