Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 853/435,860/174
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 853,860
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 853,860 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 435,174 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 435,174 is 870 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 853,860
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,853
Factors of 860
List of positive integer factors of 860 that divides 860 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,20,43,86,172,215,430,860
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 853,860 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 853,860 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 435,174
3 | 435, 174 |
29 | 145, 58 |
5, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 29 x 5 x 2 = 870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 853/435,860/174 is 1/870
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 435,174 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(435,174) = 87
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(435,174) x common factors =87 x 1 = 87
LCM(435,174) = ( 435 × 174 ) / 87
LCM(435,174) = 75690 / 87
LCM(435,174) = 870
