Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 526/355,8849/503
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 526,8849
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 526,8849 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 355,503 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 355,503 is 178565 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 526,8849
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,263,526
Factors of 8849
List of positive integer factors of 8849 that divides 8849 without a remainder.
1,8849
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 526,8849 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 526,8849 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 355,503
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 526/355,8849/503 is 1/178565
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 355,503 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(355,503) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(355,503) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(355,503) = ( 355 × 503 ) / 1
LCM(355,503) = 178565 / 1
LCM(355,503) = 178565
