Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 61/37,703/29,159/577
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 61,703,159
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 61,703,159 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 37,29,577 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 37,29,577 is 619121 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 61,703,159
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 61
List of positive integer factors of 61 that divides 61 without a remainder.
1,61
Factors of 703
List of positive integer factors of 703 that divides 703 without a remainder.
1,19,37,703
Factors of 159
List of positive integer factors of 159 that divides 159 without a remainder.
1,3,53,159
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 61,703,159 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 61,703,159 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,29,577
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 619121
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/619121
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/37,703/29,159/577 is 1/619121
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 37,29,577 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,29,577) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,29,577) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,29,577) = ( 37 × 29 × 577 ) / 1
LCM(37,29,577) = 619121 / 1
LCM(37,29,577) = 619121
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
