Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 589/652,8831/228
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 589,8831
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 589,8831 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 652,228 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 652,228 is 37164 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 589,8831
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 8831
List of positive integer factors of 8831 that divides 8831 without a remainder.
1,8831
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 589,8831 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 589,8831 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 652,228
2 | 652, 228 |
2 | 326, 114 |
163, 57 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 163 x 57 = 37164
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37164
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 589/652,8831/228 is 1/37164
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 652,228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(652,228) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(652,228) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(652,228) = ( 652 × 228 ) / 4
LCM(652,228) = 148656 / 4
LCM(652,228) = 37164
