Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 2501/247,1196/2101
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 2501,1196
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 2501,1196 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 247,2101 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 247,2101 is 518947 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 2501,1196
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 1196
List of positive integer factors of 1196 that divides 1196 without a remainder.
1,2,4,13,23,26,46,52,92,299,598,1196
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2501,1196 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2501,1196 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 247,2101
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 518947
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/518947
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2501/247,1196/2101 is 1/518947
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 247,2101 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(247,2101) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(247,2101) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(247,2101) = ( 247 × 2101 ) / 1
LCM(247,2101) = 518947 / 1
LCM(247,2101) = 518947
