Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 263/997,3925/243
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 263,3925
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 263,3925 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 997,243 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 997,243 is 242271 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 263,3925
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,263
Factors of 3925
List of positive integer factors of 3925 that divides 3925 without a remainder.
1,5,25,157,785,3925
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 263,3925 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 263,3925 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,243
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 242271
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/242271
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 263/997,3925/243 is 1/242271
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 997,243 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,243) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,243) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,243) = ( 997 × 243 ) / 1
LCM(997,243) = 242271 / 1
LCM(997,243) = 242271
