Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6843/70,7973/131
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 6843,7973
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6843,7973 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 70,131 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 70,131 is 9170 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6843,7973
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,2281,6843
Factors of 7973
List of positive integer factors of 7973 that divides 7973 without a remainder.
1,7,17,67,119,469,1139,7973
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6843,7973 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6843,7973 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,131
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9170
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9170
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6843/70,7973/131 is 1/9170
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 70,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,131) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(70,131) = ( 70 × 131 ) / 1
LCM(70,131) = 9170 / 1
LCM(70,131) = 9170
