Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 49/51,17/417,731/318
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 49,17,731
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 49,17,731 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,417,318 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,417,318 is 751434 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 49,17,731
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 49
List of positive integer factors of 49 that divides 49 without a remainder.
1,7,49
Factors of 17
List of positive integer factors of 17 that divides 17 without a remainder.
1,17
Factors of 731
List of positive integer factors of 731 that divides 731 without a remainder.
1,17,43,731
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 49,17,731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 49,17,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,417,318
3 | 51, 417, 318 |
17, 139, 106 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 17 x 139 x 106 = 751434
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/751434
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 49/51,17/417,731/318 is 1/751434
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 51,417,318 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,417,318) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(51,417,318) x common factors =3 x 3 = 9
LCM(51,417,318) = ( 51 × 417 × 318 ) / 9
LCM(51,417,318) = 6762906 / 9
LCM(51,417,318) = 751434
