Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 885/55,326/851
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 885,326
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 885,326 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,851 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,851 is 46805 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 885,326
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 885 that divides 885 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15,59,177,295,885
Factors of 326
List of positive integer factors of 326 that divides 326 without a remainder.
1,2,163,326
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 885,326 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 885,326 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 46805
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46805
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 885/55,326/851 is 1/46805
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 55,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,851) = ( 55 × 851 ) / 1
LCM(55,851) = 46805 / 1
LCM(55,851) = 46805
