Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 604/42,601/9937
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 604,601
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 604,601 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 42,9937 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 42,9937 is 417354 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 604,601
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 604 that divides 604 without a remainder.
1,2,4,151,302,604
Factors of 601
List of positive integer factors of 601 that divides 601 without a remainder.
1,601
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 604,601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 604,601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,9937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 417354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/417354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 604/42,601/9937 is 1/417354
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 42,9937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,9937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,9937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(42,9937) = ( 42 × 9937 ) / 1
LCM(42,9937) = 417354 / 1
LCM(42,9937) = 417354
