Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 708/83,491/847
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 708,491
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 708,491 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 83,847 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 83,847 is 70301 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 708,491
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 708 that divides 708 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12,59,118,177,236,354,708
Factors of 491
List of positive integer factors of 491 that divides 491 without a remainder.
1,491
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 708,491 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 708,491 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,847
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 70301
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/70301
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 708/83,491/847 is 1/70301
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 83,847 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,847) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(83,847) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(83,847) = ( 83 × 847 ) / 1
LCM(83,847) = 70301 / 1
LCM(83,847) = 70301
