Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 61/51,72/94,223/166
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 61,72,223
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 61,72,223 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 51,94,166 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 51,94,166 is 397902 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 61,72,223
∴ 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 72
List of positive integer factors of 72 that divides 72 without a remainder.
1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72
Factors of 223
List of positive integer factors of 223 that divides 223 without a remainder.
1,223
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 61,72,223 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 61,72,223 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,94,166
2 | 51, 94, 166 |
51, 47, 83 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 51 x 47 x 83 = 397902
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/397902
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/51,72/94,223/166 is 1/397902
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 51,94,166 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,94,166) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(51,94,166) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(51,94,166) = ( 51 × 94 × 166 ) / 2
LCM(51,94,166) = 795804 / 2
LCM(51,94,166) = 397902
