Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 657/23,4456/977
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 657,4456
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 657,4456 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 23,977 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 23,977 is 22471 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 657,4456
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,9,73,219,657
Factors of 4456
List of positive integer factors of 4456 that divides 4456 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,557,1114,2228,4456
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 657,4456 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 657,4456 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 22471
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22471
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 657/23,4456/977 is 1/22471
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 23,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,977) = ( 23 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(23,977) = 22471 / 1
LCM(23,977) = 22471
