Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 3488/39,4233/457
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 3488,4233
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 3488,4233 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 39,457 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 39,457 is 17823 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 3488,4233
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 4233 that divides 4233 without a remainder.
1,3,17,51,83,249,1411,4233
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3488,4233 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3488,4233 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17823
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17823
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3488/39,4233/457 is 1/17823
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 39,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(39,457) = ( 39 × 457 ) / 1
LCM(39,457) = 17823 / 1
LCM(39,457) = 17823
