Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8271/142,9601/297
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 8271,9601
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8271,9601 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 142,297 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 142,297 is 42174 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8271,9601
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 8271 that divides 8271 without a remainder.
1,3,9,919,2757,8271
Factors of 9601
List of positive integer factors of 9601 that divides 9601 without a remainder.
1,9601
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8271,9601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8271,9601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 142,297
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8271/142,9601/297 is 1/42174
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 142,297 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(142,297) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(142,297) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(142,297) = ( 142 × 297 ) / 1
LCM(142,297) = 42174 / 1
LCM(142,297) = 42174
