Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 443/711,506/858
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 443,506
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 443,506 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 711,858 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 711,858 is 203346 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 443,506
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,11,22,23,46,253,506
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 443,506 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 443,506 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 711,858
3 | 711, 858 |
237, 286 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 237 x 286 = 203346
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/203346
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 443/711,506/858 is 1/203346
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 711,858 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(711,858) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(711,858) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(711,858) = ( 711 × 858 ) / 3
LCM(711,858) = 610038 / 3
LCM(711,858) = 203346
