Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 589/79,8209/359
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 589,8209
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 589,8209 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 79,359 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 79,359 is 28361 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 589,8209
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 589 that divides 589 without a remainder.
1,19,31,589
Factors of 8209
List of positive integer factors of 8209 that divides 8209 without a remainder.
1,8209
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 589,8209 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 589,8209 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28361
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/28361
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 589/79,8209/359 is 1/28361
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 79,359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,359) = ( 79 × 359 ) / 1
LCM(79,359) = 28361 / 1
LCM(79,359) = 28361
