Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 412/457,2179/158
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 412,2179
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 412,2179 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 457,158 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 457,158 is 72206 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 412,2179
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 412 that divides 412 without a remainder.
1,2,4,103,206,412
Factors of 2179
List of positive integer factors of 2179 that divides 2179 without a remainder.
1,2179
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 412,2179 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 412,2179 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 457,158
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 72206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/72206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 412/457,2179/158 is 1/72206
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 457,158 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(457,158) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(457,158) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(457,158) = ( 457 × 158 ) / 1
LCM(457,158) = 72206 / 1
LCM(457,158) = 72206
