Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 319/189,855/772
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 319,855
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 319,855 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 189,772 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 189,772 is 145908 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 319,855
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 319 that divides 319 without a remainder.
1,11,29,319
Factors of 855
List of positive integer factors of 855 that divides 855 without a remainder.
1,3,5,9,15,19,45,57,95,171,285,855
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 319,855 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 319,855 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 189,772
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 145908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 319/189,855/772 is 1/145908
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 189,772 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(189,772) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(189,772) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(189,772) = ( 189 × 772 ) / 1
LCM(189,772) = 145908 / 1
LCM(189,772) = 145908
