Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 401/26,254/33,166/89
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 401,254,166
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 401,254,166 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,33,89 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,33,89 is 76362 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 401,254,166
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

List of positive integer factors of 401 that divides 401 without a remainder.
1,401
Factors of 254
List of positive integer factors of 254 that divides 254 without a remainder.
1,2,127,254
Factors of 166
List of positive integer factors of 166 that divides 166 without a remainder.
1,2,83,166
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 401,254,166 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 401,254,166 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,33,89
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 76362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/76362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 401/26,254/33,166/89 is 1/76362
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 26,33,89 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,33,89) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,33,89) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,33,89) = ( 26 × 33 × 89 ) / 1
LCM(26,33,89) = 76362 / 1
LCM(26,33,89) = 76362
