Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5505/37,3133/144
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 5505,3133
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5505,3133 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,144 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,144 is 5328 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5505,3133
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,5,15,367,1101,1835,5505
Factors of 3133
List of positive integer factors of 3133 that divides 3133 without a remainder.
1,13,241,3133
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5505,3133 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5505,3133 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,144
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5328
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5328
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5505/37,3133/144 is 1/5328
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 37,144 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,144) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,144) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,144) = ( 37 × 144 ) / 1
LCM(37,144) = 5328 / 1
LCM(37,144) = 5328
