Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 795/397,959/571
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 795,959
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 795,959 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 397,571 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 397,571 is 226687 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 795,959
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 795 that divides 795 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,53,159,265,795
Factors of 959
List of positive integer factors of 959 that divides 959 without a remainder.
1,7,137,959
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 795,959 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 795,959 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 397,571
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 226687
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/226687
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 795/397,959/571 is 1/226687
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 397,571 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,571) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,571) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,571) = ( 397 × 571 ) / 1
LCM(397,571) = 226687 / 1
LCM(397,571) = 226687
