Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 46/89,15/127,997/746
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 46,15,997
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 46,15,997 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 89,127,746 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 89,127,746 is 8432038 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 46,15,997
∴ 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 997
List of positive integer factors of 997 that divides 997 without a remainder.
1,997
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 46,15,997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 46,15,997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 89,127,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8432038
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8432038
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 46/89,15/127,997/746 is 1/8432038
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 89,127,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(89,127,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(89,127,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(89,127,746) = ( 89 × 127 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(89,127,746) = 8432038 / 1
LCM(89,127,746) = 8432038
