Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 18/12,63/14,41/62,33/292
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 18,63,41,33
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 18,63,41,33 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 12,14,62,292 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 12,14,62,292 is 190092 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,63,41,33
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 18

1,41
Factors of 33
List of positive integer factors of 33 that divides 33 without a remainder.
1,3,11,33
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,63,41,33 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,63,41,33 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,14,62,292
2 | 12, 14, 62, 292 |
2 | 6, 7, 31, 146 |
3, 7, 31, 73 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 7 x 31 x 73 = 190092
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/190092
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/12,63/14,41/62,33/292 is 1/190092
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 12,14,62,292 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,14,62,292) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(12,14,62,292) x common factors =2 x 8 = 16
LCM(12,14,62,292) = ( 12 × 14 × 62 × 292 ) / 16
LCM(12,14,62,292) = 3041472 / 16
LCM(12,14,62,292) = 190092
