Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 889/745,342/711
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 889,342
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 889,342 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 745,711 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 745,711 is 529695 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 889,342
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 889 that divides 889 without a remainder.
1,7,127,889
Factors of 342
List of positive integer factors of 342 that divides 342 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,19,38,57,114,171,342
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 889,342 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 889,342 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 745,711
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 529695
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/529695
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 889/745,342/711 is 1/529695
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 745,711 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(745,711) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(745,711) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(745,711) = ( 745 × 711 ) / 1
LCM(745,711) = 529695 / 1
LCM(745,711) = 529695
