Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 441/452,391/790
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 441,391
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 441,391 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 452,790 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 452,790 is 178540 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 441,391
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,7,9,21,49,63,147,441
Factors of 391
List of positive integer factors of 391 that divides 391 without a remainder.
1,17,23,391
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 441,391 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 441,391 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 452,790
2 | 452, 790 |
226, 395 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 226 x 395 = 178540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 441/452,391/790 is 1/178540
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 452,790 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(452,790) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(452,790) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(452,790) = ( 452 × 790 ) / 2
LCM(452,790) = 357080 / 2
LCM(452,790) = 178540
