Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 18/353,21/923,148/244
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 18,21,148
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 18,21,148 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 353,923,244 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 353,923,244 is 79499836 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,21,148
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 18
List of positive integer factors of 18 that divides 18 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18
Factors of 21
List of positive integer factors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21
Factors of 148
List of positive integer factors of 148 that divides 148 without a remainder.
1,2,4,37,74,148
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,21,148 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,21,148 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 353,923,244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 79499836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/79499836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/353,21/923,148/244 is 1/79499836
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 353,923,244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(353,923,244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(353,923,244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(353,923,244) = ( 353 × 923 × 244 ) / 1
LCM(353,923,244) = 79499836 / 1
LCM(353,923,244) = 79499836
