Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 56/49,57/19,246/897
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 56,57,246
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 56,57,246 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 49,19,897 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 49,19,897 is 835107 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 56,57,246
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 56
List of positive integer factors of 56 that divides 56 without a remainder.
1,2,4,7,8,14,28,56

Factors of 246
List of positive integer factors of 246 that divides 246 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,41,82,123,246
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 56,57,246 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 56,57,246 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 49,19,897
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 835107
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/835107
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 56/49,57/19,246/897 is 1/835107
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 49,19,897 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(49,19,897) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(49,19,897) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(49,19,897) = ( 49 × 19 × 897 ) / 1
LCM(49,19,897) = 835107 / 1
LCM(49,19,897) = 835107
