Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1401/16,6808/997
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 1401,6808
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1401,6808 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 16,997 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 16,997 is 15952 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1401,6808
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 6808
List of positive integer factors of 6808 that divides 6808 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,23,37,46,74,92,148,184,296,851,1702,3404,6808
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1401,6808 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1401,6808 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15952
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15952
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1401/16,6808/997 is 1/15952
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 16,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,997) = ( 16 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(16,997) = 15952 / 1
LCM(16,997) = 15952
