Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 40/97,13/77,871/204
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 40,13,871
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 40,13,871 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 97,77,204 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 97,77,204 is 1523676 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 40,13,871
∴ 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 13
List of positive integer factors of 13 that divides 13 without a remainder.
1,13
Factors of 871
List of positive integer factors of 871 that divides 871 without a remainder.
1,13,67,871
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 40,13,871 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 40,13,871 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,77,204
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1523676
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1523676
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 40/97,13/77,871/204 is 1/1523676
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 97,77,204 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,77,204) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,77,204) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,77,204) = ( 97 × 77 × 204 ) / 1
LCM(97,77,204) = 1523676 / 1
LCM(97,77,204) = 1523676
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
