Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 656/141,1797/502
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 656,1797
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 656,1797 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 141,502 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 141,502 is 70782 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 656,1797
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 656 that divides 656 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,41,82,164,328,656
Factors of 1797
List of positive integer factors of 1797 that divides 1797 without a remainder.
1,3,599,1797
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 656,1797 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 656,1797 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 141,502
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 70782
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/70782
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 656/141,1797/502 is 1/70782
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 141,502 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(141,502) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(141,502) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(141,502) = ( 141 × 502 ) / 1
LCM(141,502) = 70782 / 1
LCM(141,502) = 70782
