Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1074/17,5225/160
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 1074,5225
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1074,5225 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,160 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,160 is 2720 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1074,5225
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,6,179,358,537,1074
Factors of 5225
List of positive integer factors of 5225 that divides 5225 without a remainder.
1,5,11,19,25,55,95,209,275,475,1045,5225
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1074,5225 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1074,5225 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,160
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1074/17,5225/160 is 1/2720
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 17,160 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,160) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,160) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,160) = ( 17 × 160 ) / 1
LCM(17,160) = 2720 / 1
LCM(17,160) = 2720
