Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 21/66,71/85,944/313
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 21,71,944
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 21,71,944 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 66,85,313 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 66,85,313 is 1755930 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 21,71,944
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,71
Factors of 944
List of positive integer factors of 944 that divides 944 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,16,59,118,236,472,944
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 21,71,944 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 21,71,944 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 66,85,313
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1755930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1755930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/66,71/85,944/313 is 1/1755930
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 66,85,313 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(66,85,313) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(66,85,313) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(66,85,313) = ( 66 × 85 × 313 ) / 1
LCM(66,85,313) = 1755930 / 1
LCM(66,85,313) = 1755930
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
