Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 310/59,515/16,721/35
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 310,515,721
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 310,515,721 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 59,16,35 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 59,16,35 is 33040 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 310,515,721
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 310
List of positive integer factors of 310 that divides 310 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10,31,62,155,310
Factors of 515
List of positive integer factors of 515 that divides 515 without a remainder.
1,5,103,515
Factors of 721
List of positive integer factors of 721 that divides 721 without a remainder.
1,7,103,721
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 310,515,721 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 310,515,721 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,16,35
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 33040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/33040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 310/59,515/16,721/35 is 1/33040
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 59,16,35 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,16,35) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,16,35) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,16,35) = ( 59 × 16 × 35 ) / 1
LCM(59,16,35) = 33040 / 1
LCM(59,16,35) = 33040
