Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 871/326,240/167
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 871,240
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 871,240 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 326,167 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 326,167 is 54442 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 871,240
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,16,20,24,30,40,48,60,80,120,240
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 871,240 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 871,240 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 326,167
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 54442
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/54442
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 871/326,240/167 is 1/54442
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 326,167 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(326,167) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(326,167) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(326,167) = ( 326 × 167 ) / 1
LCM(326,167) = 54442 / 1
LCM(326,167) = 54442
