Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 40/56,53/95,194/11
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 40,53,194
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 40,53,194 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 56,95,11 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 56,95,11 is 58520 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 40,53,194
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 40
List of positive integer factors of 40 that divides 40 without a remainder.
1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40
Factors of 53
List of positive integer factors of 53 that divides 53 without a remainder.
1,53
Factors of 194
List of positive integer factors of 194 that divides 194 without a remainder.
1,2,97,194
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,53,194 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,53,194 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 56,95,11
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/58520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/56,53/95,194/11 is 1/58520
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 56,95,11 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(56,95,11) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(56,95,11) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(56,95,11) = ( 56 × 95 × 11 ) / 1
LCM(56,95,11) = 58520 / 1
LCM(56,95,11) = 58520
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
