Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 438/201,7837/911
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 438,7837
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 438,7837 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 201,911 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 201,911 is 183111 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 438,7837
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 438 that divides 438 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,73,146,219,438
Factors of 7837
List of positive integer factors of 7837 that divides 7837 without a remainder.
1,17,461,7837
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 438,7837 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 438,7837 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,911
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 183111
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/183111
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 438/201,7837/911 is 1/183111
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 201,911 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,911) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,911) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,911) = ( 201 × 911 ) / 1
LCM(201,911) = 183111 / 1
LCM(201,911) = 183111
