Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 266/101,7485/120
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 266,7485
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 266,7485 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 101,120 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 101,120 is 12120 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 266,7485
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 266 that divides 266 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,19,38,133,266
Factors of 7485
List of positive integer factors of 7485 that divides 7485 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,499,1497,2495,7485
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 266,7485 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 266,7485 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 101,120
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 266/101,7485/120 is 1/12120
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 101,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(101,120) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(101,120) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(101,120) = ( 101 × 120 ) / 1
LCM(101,120) = 12120 / 1
LCM(101,120) = 12120
