Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8555/85,2131/246
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 8555,2131
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8555,2131 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 85,246 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 85,246 is 20910 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8555,2131
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 2131
List of positive integer factors of 2131 that divides 2131 without a remainder.
1,2131
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8555,2131 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8555,2131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 85,246
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20910
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20910
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8555/85,2131/246 is 1/20910
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 85,246 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,246) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(85,246) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(85,246) = ( 85 × 246 ) / 1
LCM(85,246) = 20910 / 1
LCM(85,246) = 20910
