Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 61/53,971/94,526/249
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 61,971,526
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 61,971,526 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 53,94,249 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 53,94,249 is 1240518 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 61,971,526
∴ 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 971
List of positive integer factors of 971 that divides 971 without a remainder.
1,971
Factors of 526
List of positive integer factors of 526 that divides 526 without a remainder.
1,2,263,526
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 61,971,526 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 61,971,526 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,94,249
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1240518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1240518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 61/53,971/94,526/249 is 1/1240518
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 53,94,249 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,94,249) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,94,249) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,94,249) = ( 53 × 94 × 249 ) / 1
LCM(53,94,249) = 1240518 / 1
LCM(53,94,249) = 1240518
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
