Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 21/68,335/55,517/963
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 21,335,517
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 21,335,517 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 68,55,963 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 68,55,963 is 3601620 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 21,335,517
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 21
List of positive integer factors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1,3,7,21
Factors of 335
List of positive integer factors of 335 that divides 335 without a remainder.
1,5,67,335
Factors of 517
List of positive integer factors of 517 that divides 517 without a remainder.
1,11,47,517
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 21,335,517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 21,335,517 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 68,55,963
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3601620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3601620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 21/68,335/55,517/963 is 1/3601620
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 68,55,963 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(68,55,963) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(68,55,963) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(68,55,963) = ( 68 × 55 × 963 ) / 1
LCM(68,55,963) = 3601620 / 1
LCM(68,55,963) = 3601620
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
