Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5031/69,3736/157
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 5031,3736
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5031,3736 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 69,157 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 69,157 is 10833 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5031,3736
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,9,13,39,43,117,129,387,559,1677,5031
Factors of 3736
List of positive integer factors of 3736 that divides 3736 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,467,934,1868,3736
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5031,3736 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5031,3736 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 69,157
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10833
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10833
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5031/69,3736/157 is 1/10833
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 69,157 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(69,157) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(69,157) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(69,157) = ( 69 × 157 ) / 1
LCM(69,157) = 10833 / 1
LCM(69,157) = 10833
