Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 617/587,380/371
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 617,380
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 617,380 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 587,371 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 587,371 is 217777 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 617,380
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,617
Factors of 380
List of positive integer factors of 380 that divides 380 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,19,20,38,76,95,190,380
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 617,380 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 617,380 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 587,371
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 217777
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/217777
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 617/587,380/371 is 1/217777
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 587,371 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(587,371) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(587,371) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(587,371) = ( 587 × 371 ) / 1
LCM(587,371) = 217777 / 1
LCM(587,371) = 217777
