Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 49/55,53/76,941/161
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 49,53,941
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 49,53,941 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 55,76,161 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 55,76,161 is 672980 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 49,53,941
∴ 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 53
List of positive integer factors of 53 that divides 53 without a remainder.
1,53
Factors of 941
List of positive integer factors of 941 that divides 941 without a remainder.
1,941
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 49,53,941 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 49,53,941 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,76,161
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 672980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/672980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 49/55,53/76,941/161 is 1/672980
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 55,76,161 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,76,161) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,76,161) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,76,161) = ( 55 × 76 × 161 ) / 1
LCM(55,76,161) = 672980 / 1
LCM(55,76,161) = 672980
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
