Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8331/71,7339/145
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 8331,7339
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8331,7339 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 71,145 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 71,145 is 10295 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8331,7339
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 8331 that divides 8331 without a remainder.
1,3,2777,8331
Factors of 7339
List of positive integer factors of 7339 that divides 7339 without a remainder.
1,41,179,7339
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8331,7339 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8331,7339 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,145
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10295
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10295
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8331/71,7339/145 is 1/10295
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 71,145 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,145) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,145) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,145) = ( 71 × 145 ) / 1
LCM(71,145) = 10295 / 1
LCM(71,145) = 10295
