Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 46/43,15/47,434/48
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 46,15,434
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 46,15,434 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 43,47,48 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 43,47,48 is 97008 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 46,15,434
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 46
List of positive integer factors of 46 that divides 46 without a remainder.
1,2,23,46
Factors of 15
List of positive integer factors of 15 that divides 15 without a remainder.
1,3,5,15
Factors of 434
List of positive integer factors of 434 that divides 434 without a remainder.
1,2,7,14,31,62,217,434
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,15,434 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,15,434 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,47,48
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 97008
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/97008
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/43,15/47,434/48 is 1/97008
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 43,47,48 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,47,48) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,47,48) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,47,48) = ( 43 × 47 × 48 ) / 1
LCM(43,47,48) = 97008 / 1
LCM(43,47,48) = 97008
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
