Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 409/165,3242/518
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 409,3242
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 409,3242 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 165,518 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 165,518 is 85470 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 409,3242
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,409
Factors of 3242
List of positive integer factors of 3242 that divides 3242 without a remainder.
1,2,1621,3242
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 409,3242 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 409,3242 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 165,518
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 85470
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/85470
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 409/165,3242/518 is 1/85470
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 165,518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(165,518) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(165,518) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(165,518) = ( 165 × 518 ) / 1
LCM(165,518) = 85470 / 1
LCM(165,518) = 85470
