Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 284/847,881/488
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 284,881
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 284,881 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 847,488 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 847,488 is 413336 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 284,881
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 881
List of positive integer factors of 881 that divides 881 without a remainder.
1,881
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 284,881 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 284,881 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 847,488
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 413336
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/413336
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 284/847,881/488 is 1/413336
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 847,488 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,488) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,488) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(847,488) = ( 847 × 488 ) / 1
LCM(847,488) = 413336 / 1
LCM(847,488) = 413336
