Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 19/99,93/180,18/660
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 19,93,18
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 19,93,18 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 99,180,660 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 99,180,660 is 1980 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 19,93,18
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 19
List of positive integer factors of 19 that divides 19 without a remainder.
1,19
Factors of 93
List of positive integer factors of 93 that divides 93 without a remainder.
1,3,31,93
Factors of 18
List of positive integer factors of 18 that divides 18 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 19,93,18 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 19,93,18 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,180,660
2 | 99, 180, 660 |
2 | 99, 90, 330 |
3 | 99, 45, 165 |
3 | 33, 15, 55 |
5 | 11, 5, 55 |
11 | 11, 1, 11 |
1, 1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 11 x 1 x 1 x 1 = 1980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 19/99,93/180,18/660 is 1/1980
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 99,180,660 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,180,660) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1980
GCF(99,180,660) x common factors =3 x 1980 = 5940
LCM(99,180,660) = ( 99 × 180 × 660 ) / 5940
LCM(99,180,660) = 11761200 / 5940
LCM(99,180,660) = 1980
