Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 5/32,961/73,932/39
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 5,961,932
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 5,961,932 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 32,73,39 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 32,73,39 is 91104 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 5,961,932
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 5
List of positive integer factors of 5 that divides 5 without a remainder.
1,5
Factors of 961
List of positive integer factors of 961 that divides 961 without a remainder.
1,31,961
Factors of 932
List of positive integer factors of 932 that divides 932 without a remainder.
1,2,4,233,466,932
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5,961,932 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5,961,932 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,73,39
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 91104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/91104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5/32,961/73,932/39 is 1/91104
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 32,73,39 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,73,39) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,73,39) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(32,73,39) = ( 32 × 73 × 39 ) / 1
LCM(32,73,39) = 91104 / 1
LCM(32,73,39) = 91104
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
