Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 632/357,3287/478
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 632,3287
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 632,3287 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 357,478 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 357,478 is 170646 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 632,3287
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 3287
List of positive integer factors of 3287 that divides 3287 without a remainder.
1,19,173,3287
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 632,3287 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 632,3287 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 357,478
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 170646
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/170646
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 632/357,3287/478 is 1/170646
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 357,478 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,478) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,478) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(357,478) = ( 357 × 478 ) / 1
LCM(357,478) = 170646 / 1
LCM(357,478) = 170646
