Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 58/17,291/52,242/375
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 58,291,242
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 58,291,242 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 17,52,375 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 17,52,375 is 331500 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 58,291,242
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 242
List of positive integer factors of 242 that divides 242 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,121,242
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 58,291,242 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 58,291,242 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,52,375
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 331500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/331500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 58/17,291/52,242/375 is 1/331500
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 17,52,375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,52,375) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,52,375) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,52,375) = ( 17 × 52 × 375 ) / 1
LCM(17,52,375) = 331500 / 1
LCM(17,52,375) = 331500
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
