Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 7145/16,5224/839
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 7145,5224
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 7145,5224 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 16,839 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 16,839 is 13424 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 7145,5224
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 7145 that divides 7145 without a remainder.
1,5,1429,7145
Factors of 5224
List of positive integer factors of 5224 that divides 5224 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,653,1306,2612,5224
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7145,5224 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7145,5224 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,839
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 13424
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/13424
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7145/16,5224/839 is 1/13424
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 16,839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,839) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,839) = ( 16 × 839 ) / 1
LCM(16,839) = 13424 / 1
LCM(16,839) = 13424
