Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 229/853,884/207
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 229,884
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 229,884 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 853,207 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 853,207 is 176571 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 229,884
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,229
Factors of 884
List of positive integer factors of 884 that divides 884 without a remainder.
1,2,4,13,17,26,34,52,68,221,442,884
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 229,884 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 229,884 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 853,207
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 176571
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/176571
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 229/853,884/207 is 1/176571
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 853,207 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(853,207) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(853,207) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(853,207) = ( 853 × 207 ) / 1
LCM(853,207) = 176571 / 1
LCM(853,207) = 176571
