Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 230/442,343/375
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 230,343
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 230,343 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 442,375 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 442,375 is 165750 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 230,343
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 230 that divides 230 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,23,46,115,230
Factors of 343
List of positive integer factors of 343 that divides 343 without a remainder.
1,7,49,343
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 230,343 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 230,343 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 442,375
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 165750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/165750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 230/442,343/375 is 1/165750
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 442,375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(442,375) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(442,375) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(442,375) = ( 442 × 375 ) / 1
LCM(442,375) = 165750 / 1
LCM(442,375) = 165750
