Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5785/55,7997/223
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 5785,7997
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5785,7997 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,223 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,223 is 12265 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5785,7997
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 7997
List of positive integer factors of 7997 that divides 7997 without a remainder.
1,11,727,7997
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5785,7997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5785,7997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,223
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5785/55,7997/223 is 1/12265
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 55,223 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,223) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,223) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,223) = ( 55 × 223 ) / 1
LCM(55,223) = 12265 / 1
LCM(55,223) = 12265
