Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 1/26,302/79,134/68
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 1,302,134
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 1,302,134 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,79,68 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,79,68 is 69836 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1,302,134
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 1
List of positive integer factors of 1 that divides 1 without a remainder.
1
Factors of 302
List of positive integer factors of 302 that divides 302 without a remainder.
1,2,151,302
Factors of 134
List of positive integer factors of 134 that divides 134 without a remainder.
1,2,67,134
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1,302,134 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1,302,134 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,79,68
2 | 26, 79, 68 |
13, 79, 34 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 13 x 79 x 34 = 69836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/69836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1/26,302/79,134/68 is 1/69836
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 26,79,68 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,79,68) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(26,79,68) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(26,79,68) = ( 26 × 79 × 68 ) / 2
LCM(26,79,68) = 139672 / 2
LCM(26,79,68) = 69836
