Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 12/58,26/64,902/701
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 12,26,902
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 12,26,902 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 58,64,701 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 58,64,701 is 1301056 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 12,26,902
2 | 12, 26, 902 |
6, 13, 451 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 12
List of positive integer factors of 12 that divides 12 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12
Factors of 26
List of positive integer factors of 26 that divides 26 without a remainder.
1,2,13,26
Factors of 902
List of positive integer factors of 902 that divides 902 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,41,82,451,902
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 12,26,902 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,26,902 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 58,64,701
2 | 58, 64, 701 |
29, 32, 701 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 29 x 32 x 701 = 1301056
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1301056
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/58,26/64,902/701 is 2/1301056
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 58,64,701 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,64,701) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(58,64,701) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(58,64,701) = ( 58 × 64 × 701 ) / 2
LCM(58,64,701) = 2602112 / 2
LCM(58,64,701) = 1301056
