Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 423/272,8179/175
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 423,8179
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 423,8179 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 272,175 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 272,175 is 47600 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 423,8179
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 423 that divides 423 without a remainder.
1,3,9,47,141,423
Factors of 8179
List of positive integer factors of 8179 that divides 8179 without a remainder.
1,8179
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 423,8179 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 423,8179 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 272,175
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 423/272,8179/175 is 1/47600
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 272,175 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(272,175) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(272,175) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(272,175) = ( 272 × 175 ) / 1
LCM(272,175) = 47600 / 1
LCM(272,175) = 47600
