Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 12/17,63/88,909/599
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 12,63,909
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 12,63,909 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,88,599 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,88,599 is 896104 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 12,63,909
3 | 12, 63, 909 |
4, 21, 303 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3

1,3,9,101,303,909
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 12,63,909 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,63,909 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,88,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 896104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/896104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/17,63/88,909/599 is 3/896104
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 17,88,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,88,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,88,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,88,599) = ( 17 × 88 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(17,88,599) = 896104 / 1
LCM(17,88,599) = 896104
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
