Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 10/83,15/89,685/958
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 10,15,685
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 10,15,685 is 5 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 83,89,958 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 83,89,958 is 7076746 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 10,15,685
5 | 10, 15, 685 |
2, 3, 137 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Factors of 10

1,2,5,10
Factors of 15
List of positive integer factors of 15 that divides 15 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15
Factors of 685
List of positive integer factors of 685 that divides 685 without a remainder.
1,5,137,685
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 10,15,685 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 10,15,685 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 83,89,958
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7076746
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/7076746
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 10/83,15/89,685/958 is 5/7076746
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 83,89,958 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(83,89,958) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(83,89,958) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(83,89,958) = ( 83 × 89 × 958 ) / 1
LCM(83,89,958) = 7076746 / 1
LCM(83,89,958) = 7076746
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
