Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5501/75,9868/397
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 5501,9868
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5501,9868 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 75,397 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 75,397 is 29775 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5501,9868
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 9868
List of positive integer factors of 9868 that divides 9868 without a remainder.
1,2,4,2467,4934,9868
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5501,9868 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5501,9868 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29775
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29775
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5501/75,9868/397 is 1/29775
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 75,397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(75,397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(75,397) = ( 75 × 397 ) / 1
LCM(75,397) = 29775 / 1
LCM(75,397) = 29775
