Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 999/531,656/728
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 999,656
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 999,656 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 531,728 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 531,728 is 386568 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 999,656
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,3,9,27,37,111,333,999
Factors of 656
List of positive integer factors of 656 that divides 656 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,41,82,164,328,656
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 999,656 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 999,656 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 531,728
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 386568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/386568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 999/531,656/728 is 1/386568
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 531,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(531,728) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(531,728) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(531,728) = ( 531 × 728 ) / 1
LCM(531,728) = 386568 / 1
LCM(531,728) = 386568
