Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 709/173,680/244
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 709,680
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 709,680 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 173,244 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 173,244 is 42212 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 709,680
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,709
Factors of 680
List of positive integer factors of 680 that divides 680 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,17,20,34,40,68,85,136,170,340,680
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 709,680 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 709,680 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 173,244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 709/173,680/244 is 1/42212
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 173,244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,244) = ( 173 × 244 ) / 1
LCM(173,244) = 42212 / 1
LCM(173,244) = 42212
