Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 11/46,40/135,559/124
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 11,40,559
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 11,40,559 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,135,124 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,135,124 is 385020 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 11,40,559
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 11
List of positive integer factors of 11 that divides 11 without a remainder.
1,11
Factors of 40
List of positive integer factors of 40 that divides 40 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40
Factors of 559
List of positive integer factors of 559 that divides 559 without a remainder.
1,13,43,559
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,40,559 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,40,559 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,135,124
2 | 46, 135, 124 |
23, 135, 62 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 135 x 62 = 385020
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/385020
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/46,40/135,559/124 is 1/385020
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 46,135,124 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,135,124) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(46,135,124) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(46,135,124) = ( 46 × 135 × 124 ) / 2
LCM(46,135,124) = 770040 / 2
LCM(46,135,124) = 385020
