Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 11/79,62/491,493/125
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 11,62,493
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 11,62,493 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 79,491,125 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 79,491,125 is 4848625 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 11,62,493
∴ 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 62
List of positive integer factors of 62 that divides 62 without a remainder.
1,2,31,62
Factors of 493
List of positive integer factors of 493 that divides 493 without a remainder.
1,17,29,493
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 11,62,493 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 11,62,493 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,491,125
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4848625
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4848625
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 11/79,62/491,493/125 is 1/4848625
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 79,491,125 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,491,125) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,491,125) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,491,125) = ( 79 × 491 × 125 ) / 1
LCM(79,491,125) = 4848625 / 1
LCM(79,491,125) = 4848625
