Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1605/163,2201/3978
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 1605,2201
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1605,2201 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 163,3978 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 163,3978 is 648414 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1605,2201
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,5,15,107,321,535,1605
Factors of 2201
List of positive integer factors of 2201 that divides 2201 without a remainder.
1,31,71,2201
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1605,2201 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1605,2201 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 163,3978
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 648414
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/648414
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1605/163,2201/3978 is 1/648414
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 163,3978 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(163,3978) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(163,3978) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(163,3978) = ( 163 × 3978 ) / 1
LCM(163,3978) = 648414 / 1
LCM(163,3978) = 648414
