Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 169/379,592/261
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 169,592
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 169,592 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 379,261 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 379,261 is 98919 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 169,592
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 169 that divides 169 without a remainder.
1,13,169
Factors of 592
List of positive integer factors of 592 that divides 592 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,37,74,148,296,592
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 169,592 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 169,592 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 379,261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 98919
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98919
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 169/379,592/261 is 1/98919
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 379,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(379,261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(379,261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(379,261) = ( 379 × 261 ) / 1
LCM(379,261) = 98919 / 1
LCM(379,261) = 98919
