Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 859/184,879/923
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 859,879
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 859,879 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 184,923 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 184,923 is 169832 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 859,879
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 879
List of positive integer factors of 879 that divides 879 without a remainder.
1,3,293,879
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 859,879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 859,879 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 184,923
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 169832
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/169832
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 859/184,879/923 is 1/169832
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 184,923 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(184,923) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(184,923) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(184,923) = ( 184 × 923 ) / 1
LCM(184,923) = 169832 / 1
LCM(184,923) = 169832
