Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 602/722,1171/163
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 602,1171
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 602,1171 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 722,163 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 722,163 is 117686 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 602,1171
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 602 that divides 602 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,43,86,301,602
Factors of 1171
List of positive integer factors of 1171 that divides 1171 without a remainder.
1,1171
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 602,1171 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 602,1171 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 722,163
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 117686
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/117686
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 602/722,1171/163 is 1/117686
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 722,163 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(722,163) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(722,163) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(722,163) = ( 722 × 163 ) / 1
LCM(722,163) = 117686 / 1
LCM(722,163) = 117686
