Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 4/86,127/92,211/36
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 4,127,211
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 4,127,211 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 86,92,36 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 86,92,36 is 35604 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 4,127,211
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 4
List of positive integer factors of 4 that divides 4 without a remainder.
1,2,4
Factors of 127
List of positive integer factors of 127 that divides 127 without a remainder.
1,127
Factors of 211
List of positive integer factors of 211 that divides 211 without a remainder.
1,211
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4,127,211 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4,127,211 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 86,92,36
2 | 86, 92, 36 |
2 | 43, 46, 18 |
43, 23, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 43 x 23 x 9 = 35604
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/35604
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4/86,127/92,211/36 is 1/35604
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 86,92,36 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(86,92,36) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(86,92,36) x common factors =2 x 4 = 8
LCM(86,92,36) = ( 86 × 92 × 36 ) / 8
LCM(86,92,36) = 284832 / 8
LCM(86,92,36) = 35604
