Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 642/233,1433/489
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 642,1433
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 642,1433 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 233,489 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 233,489 is 113937 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 642,1433
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 642 that divides 642 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,107,214,321,642
Factors of 1433
List of positive integer factors of 1433 that divides 1433 without a remainder.
1,1433
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 642,1433 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 642,1433 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 233,489
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 113937
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/113937
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 642/233,1433/489 is 1/113937
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 233,489 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,489) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,489) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,489) = ( 233 × 489 ) / 1
LCM(233,489) = 113937 / 1
LCM(233,489) = 113937
