Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 424/239,489/617
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 424,489
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 424,489 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 239,617 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 239,617 is 147463 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 424,489
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 424 that divides 424 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,53,106,212,424
Factors of 489
List of positive integer factors of 489 that divides 489 without a remainder.
1,3,163,489
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 424,489 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 424,489 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 239,617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 147463
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/147463
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 424/239,489/617 is 1/147463
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 239,617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(239,617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(239,617) = ( 239 × 617 ) / 1
LCM(239,617) = 147463 / 1
LCM(239,617) = 147463
