Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 28/51,47/41,979/989
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 28,47,979
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 28,47,979 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,41,989 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,41,989 is 2067999 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 28,47,979
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 28
List of positive integer factors of 28 that divides 28 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,14,28

1,47
Factors of 979
List of positive integer factors of 979 that divides 979 without a remainder.
1,11,89,979
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 28,47,979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 28,47,979 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,41,989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2067999
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2067999
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 28/51,47/41,979/989 is 1/2067999
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 51,41,989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,41,989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,41,989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,41,989) = ( 51 × 41 × 989 ) / 1
LCM(51,41,989) = 2067999 / 1
LCM(51,41,989) = 2067999
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
