Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 6/69,591/17,522/66
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 6,591,522
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 6,591,522 is 3 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 69,17,66 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 69,17,66 is 25806 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 6,591,522
3 | 6, 591, 522 |
2, 197, 174 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Factors of 6

1,3,197,591
Factors of 522
List of positive integer factors of 522 that divides 522 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,9,18,29,58,87,174,261,522
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6,591,522 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6,591,522 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 69,17,66
3 | 69, 17, 66 |
23, 17, 22 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 23 x 17 x 22 = 25806
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/25806
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6/69,591/17,522/66 is 3/25806
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 69,17,66 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(69,17,66) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 3
GCF(69,17,66) x common factors =1 x 3 = 3
LCM(69,17,66) = ( 69 × 17 × 66 ) / 3
LCM(69,17,66) = 77418 / 3
LCM(69,17,66) = 25806
