Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 12/95,21/45,89/80,347/85
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 12,21,89,347
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 12,21,89,347 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 95,45,80,85 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 95,45,80,85 is 232560 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 12,21,89,347
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 12
List of positive integer factors of 12 that divides 12 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,12
Factors of 21
List of positive integer factors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21
Factors of 89
List of positive integer factors of 89 that divides 89 without a remainder.
1,89
Factors of 347
List of positive integer factors of 347 that divides 347 without a remainder.
1,347
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 12,21,89,347 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 12,21,89,347 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,45,80,85
5 | 95, 45, 80, 85 |
19, 9, 16, 17 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 19 x 9 x 16 x 17 = 232560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/232560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 12/95,21/45,89/80,347/85 is 1/232560
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 95,45,80,85 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,45,80,85) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 25
GCF(95,45,80,85) x common factors =5 x 25 = 125
LCM(95,45,80,85) = ( 95 × 45 × 80 × 85 ) / 125
LCM(95,45,80,85) = 29070000 / 125
LCM(95,45,80,85) = 232560
