Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 220/75,535/72,104/75
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 220,535,104
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 220,535,104 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 75,72,75 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 75,72,75 is 1800 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 220,535,104
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 220 that divides 220 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,10,11,20,22,44,55,110,220
Factors of 535
List of positive integer factors of 535 that divides 535 without a remainder.
1,5,107,535
Factors of 104
List of positive integer factors of 104 that divides 104 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,13,26,52,104
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 220,535,104 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 220,535,104 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 75,72,75
3 | 75, 72, 75 |
5 | 25, 24, 25 |
5 | 5, 24, 5 |
1, 24, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 5 x 1 x 24 x 1 = 1800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 220/75,535/72,104/75 is 1/1800
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 75,72,75 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(75,72,75) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 75
GCF(75,72,75) x common factors =3 x 75 = 225
LCM(75,72,75) = ( 75 × 72 × 75 ) / 225
LCM(75,72,75) = 405000 / 225
LCM(75,72,75) = 1800
