Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 9723/55,3394/987
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 9723,3394
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 9723,3394 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,987 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,987 is 54285 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 9723,3394
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,7,21,463,1389,3241,9723
Factors of 3394
List of positive integer factors of 3394 that divides 3394 without a remainder.
1,2,1697,3394
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9723,3394 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9723,3394 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,987
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 54285
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/54285
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9723/55,3394/987 is 1/54285
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 55,987 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,987) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,987) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,987) = ( 55 × 987 ) / 1
LCM(55,987) = 54285 / 1
LCM(55,987) = 54285
