Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1500/23,6737/271
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 1500,6737
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1500,6737 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,271 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,271 is 6233 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1500,6737
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 1500 that divides 1500 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,25,30,50,60,75,100,125,150,250,300,375,500,750,1500
Factors of 6737
List of positive integer factors of 6737 that divides 6737 without a remainder.
1,6737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1500,6737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1500,6737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1500/23,6737/271 is 1/6233
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 23,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,271) = ( 23 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(23,271) = 6233 / 1
LCM(23,271) = 6233
