Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 35/58,49/16,412/320
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 35,49,412
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 35,49,412 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 58,16,320 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 58,16,320 is 9280 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 35,49,412
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,7,49
Factors of 412
List of positive integer factors of 412 that divides 412 without a remainder.
1,2,4,103,206,412
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 35,49,412 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 35,49,412 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 58,16,320
2 | 58, 16, 320 |
2 | 29, 8, 160 |
2 | 29, 4, 80 |
2 | 29, 2, 40 |
29, 1, 20 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 29 x 1 x 20 = 9280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 35/58,49/16,412/320 is 1/9280
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 58,16,320 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(58,16,320) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 16
GCF(58,16,320) x common factors =2 x 16 = 32
LCM(58,16,320) = ( 58 × 16 × 320 ) / 32
LCM(58,16,320) = 296960 / 32
LCM(58,16,320) = 9280
