Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 27/24,63/46,293/586
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 27,63,293
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 27,63,293 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 24,46,586 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 24,46,586 is 161736 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 27,63,293
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 27
List of positive integer factors of 27 that divides 27 without a remainder.
1,3,9,27
Factors of 63

1,3,7,9,21,63
Factors of 293
List of positive integer factors of 293 that divides 293 without a remainder.
1,293
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 27,63,293 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 27,63,293 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,46,586
2 | 24, 46, 586 |
12, 23, 293 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 12 x 23 x 293 = 161736
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/161736
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 27/24,63/46,293/586 is 1/161736
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 24,46,586 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,46,586) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(24,46,586) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(24,46,586) = ( 24 × 46 × 586 ) / 4
LCM(24,46,586) = 646944 / 4
LCM(24,46,586) = 161736
