Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 29/16,24/26,76/218
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 29,24,76
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 29,24,76 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 16,26,218 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 16,26,218 is 22672 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 29,24,76
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,29
Factors of 24
List of positive integer factors of 24 that divides 24 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
Factors of 76
List of positive integer factors of 76 that divides 76 without a remainder.
1,2,4,19,38,76
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 29,24,76 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 29,24,76 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,26,218
2 | 16, 26, 218 |
8, 13, 109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 8 x 13 x 109 = 22672
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/22672
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 29/16,24/26,76/218 is 1/22672
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 16,26,218 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,26,218) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(16,26,218) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(16,26,218) = ( 16 × 26 × 218 ) / 4
LCM(16,26,218) = 90688 / 4
LCM(16,26,218) = 22672
