Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 903/793,874/421
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 903,874
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 903,874 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 793,421 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 793,421 is 333853 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 903,874
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 903 that divides 903 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21,43,129,301,903
Factors of 874
List of positive integer factors of 874 that divides 874 without a remainder.
1,2,19,23,38,46,437,874
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 903,874 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 903,874 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 793,421
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 333853
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/333853
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 903/793,874/421 is 1/333853
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 793,421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(793,421) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(793,421) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(793,421) = ( 793 × 421 ) / 1
LCM(793,421) = 333853 / 1
LCM(793,421) = 333853
