Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 492/449,1187/413
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 492,1187
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 492,1187 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 449,413 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 449,413 is 185437 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 492,1187
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 492 that divides 492 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,41,82,123,164,246,492
Factors of 1187
List of positive integer factors of 1187 that divides 1187 without a remainder.
1,1187
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 492,1187 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 492,1187 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 449,413
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 185437
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/185437
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 492/449,1187/413 is 1/185437
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 449,413 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(449,413) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(449,413) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(449,413) = ( 449 × 413 ) / 1
LCM(449,413) = 185437 / 1
LCM(449,413) = 185437
