Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 40/73,69/15,24/99,93/61
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 40,69,24,93
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 40,69,24,93 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 73,15,99,61 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 73,15,99,61 is 2204235 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 40,69,24,93
∴ 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 69
List of positive integer factors of 69 that divides 69 without a remainder.
1,3,23,69
Factors of 24
List of positive integer factors of 24 that divides 24 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
Factors of 93
List of positive integer factors of 93 that divides 93 without a remainder.
1,3,31,93
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,69,24,93 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,69,24,93 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,15,99,61
3 | 73, 15, 99, 61 |
73, 5, 33, 61 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 73 x 5 x 33 x 61 = 2204235
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2204235
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/73,69/15,24/99,93/61 is 1/2204235
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 73,15,99,61 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,15,99,61) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(73,15,99,61) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(73,15,99,61) = ( 73 × 15 × 99 × 61 ) / 3
LCM(73,15,99,61) = 6612705 / 3
LCM(73,15,99,61) = 2204235
