Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 162/37,1777/829
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 162,1777
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 162,1777 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,829 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,829 is 30673 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 162,1777
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 162 that divides 162 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,27,54,81,162
Factors of 1777
List of positive integer factors of 1777 that divides 1777 without a remainder.
1,1777
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 162,1777 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 162,1777 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,829
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 30673
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30673
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 162/37,1777/829 is 1/30673
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 37,829 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,829) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,829) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,829) = ( 37 × 829 ) / 1
LCM(37,829) = 30673 / 1
LCM(37,829) = 30673
