Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 353/46,149/40,607/16
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 353,149,607
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 353,149,607 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 46,40,16 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 46,40,16 is 1840 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 353,149,607
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 353
List of positive integer factors of 353 that divides 353 without a remainder.
1,353
Factors of 149
List of positive integer factors of 149 that divides 149 without a remainder.
1,149
Factors of 607
List of positive integer factors of 607 that divides 607 without a remainder.

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 353,149,607 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 353,149,607 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,40,16
2 | 46, 40, 16 |
2 | 23, 20, 8 |
2 | 23, 10, 4 |
23, 5, 2 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 23 x 5 x 2 = 1840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 353/46,149/40,607/16 is 1/1840
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 46,40,16 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,40,16) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(46,40,16) x common factors =2 x 8 = 16
LCM(46,40,16) = ( 46 × 40 × 16 ) / 16
LCM(46,40,16) = 29440 / 16
LCM(46,40,16) = 1840
