Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 18/382,571/279,593/401
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 18,571,593
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 18,571,593 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 382,279,401 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 382,279,401 is 42737778 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,571,593
∴ 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 571

1,571
Factors of 593
List of positive integer factors of 593 that divides 593 without a remainder.
1,593
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,571,593 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,571,593 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 382,279,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42737778
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/42737778
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/382,571/279,593/401 is 1/42737778
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 382,279,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(382,279,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(382,279,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(382,279,401) = ( 382 × 279 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(382,279,401) = 42737778 / 1
LCM(382,279,401) = 42737778
