Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 18/71,590/13,257/832
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 18,590,257
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 18,590,257 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 71,13,832 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 71,13,832 is 59072 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 18,590,257
∴ 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 590
List of positive integer factors of 590 that divides 590 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,59,118,295,590
Factors of 257
List of positive integer factors of 257 that divides 257 without a remainder.
1,257
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 18,590,257 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 18,590,257 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,13,832
13 | 71, 13, 832 |
71, 1, 64 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 13 x 71 x 1 x 64 = 59072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/59072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 18/71,590/13,257/832 is 1/59072
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 71,13,832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,13,832) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 13
GCF(71,13,832) x common factors =1 x 13 = 13
LCM(71,13,832) = ( 71 × 13 × 832 ) / 13
LCM(71,13,832) = 767936 / 13
LCM(71,13,832) = 59072
