Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1714/159,4219/477
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 1714,4219
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1714,4219 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 159,477 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 159,477 is 477 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1714,4219
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 4219
List of positive integer factors of 4219 that divides 4219 without a remainder.
1,4219
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1714,4219 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1714,4219 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 159,477
3 | 159, 477 |
53 | 53, 159 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 53 x 1 x 3 = 477
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/477
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1714/159,4219/477 is 1/477
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 159,477 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(159,477) = 159
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(159,477) x common factors =159 x 1 = 159
LCM(159,477) = ( 159 × 477 ) / 159
LCM(159,477) = 75843 / 159
LCM(159,477) = 477
