Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 316/32,631/14,173/74
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 316,631,173
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 316,631,173 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 32,14,74 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 32,14,74 is 8288 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 316,631,173
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 316
List of positive integer factors of 316 that divides 316 without a remainder.
1,2,4,79,158,316

List of positive integer factors of 631 that divides 631 without a remainder.
1,631
Factors of 173
List of positive integer factors of 173 that divides 173 without a remainder.
1,173
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 316,631,173 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 316,631,173 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,14,74
2 | 32, 14, 74 |
16, 7, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 16 x 7 x 37 = 8288
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8288
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 316/32,631/14,173/74 is 1/8288
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 32,14,74 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,14,74) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(32,14,74) x common factors =2 x 2 = 4
LCM(32,14,74) = ( 32 × 14 × 74 ) / 4
LCM(32,14,74) = 33152 / 4
LCM(32,14,74) = 8288
