Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 16/493,49/891,335/400
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 16,49,335
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 16,49,335 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 493,891,400 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 493,891,400 is 175705200 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 16,49,335
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 16
List of positive integer factors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16
Factors of 49
List of positive integer factors of 49 that divides 49 without a remainder.
1,7,49
Factors of 335
List of positive integer factors of 335 that divides 335 without a remainder.
1,5,67,335
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 16,49,335 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 16,49,335 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 493,891,400
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 175705200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/175705200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 16/493,49/891,335/400 is 1/175705200
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 493,891,400 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,891,400) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,891,400) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,891,400) = ( 493 × 891 × 400 ) / 1
LCM(493,891,400) = 175705200 / 1
LCM(493,891,400) = 175705200
