Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6854/81,5251/259
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 6854,5251
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6854,5251 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 81,259 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 81,259 is 20979 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6854,5251
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 5251
List of positive integer factors of 5251 that divides 5251 without a remainder.
1,59,89,5251
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6854,5251 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6854,5251 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20979
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20979
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6854/81,5251/259 is 1/20979
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 81,259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,259) = ( 81 × 259 ) / 1
LCM(81,259) = 20979 / 1
LCM(81,259) = 20979
