Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 16/79,73/95,128/458
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 16,73,128
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 16,73,128 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 79,95,458 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 79,95,458 is 3437290 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 16,73,128
∴ 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 73
List of positive integer factors of 73 that divides 73 without a remainder.
1,73
Factors of 128
List of positive integer factors of 128 that divides 128 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 16,73,128 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 16,73,128 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,95,458
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3437290
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3437290
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 16/79,73/95,128/458 is 1/3437290
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 79,95,458 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,95,458) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,95,458) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,95,458) = ( 79 × 95 × 458 ) / 1
LCM(79,95,458) = 3437290 / 1
LCM(79,95,458) = 3437290
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
