Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 62/18,84/36,86/11,54/69
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 62,84,86,54
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 62,84,86,54 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 18,36,11,69 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 18,36,11,69 is 9108 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 62,84,86,54
2 | 62, 84, 86, 54 |
31, 42, 43, 27 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 62,84,86,54 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 62,84,86,54 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,36,11,69
2 | 18, 36, 11, 69 |
3 | 9, 18, 11, 69 |
3 | 3, 6, 11, 23 |
1, 2, 11, 23 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 x 1 x 2 x 11 x 23 = 9108
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/9108
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 62/18,84/36,86/11,54/69 is 2/9108
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 18,36,11,69 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,36,11,69) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 54
GCF(18,36,11,69) x common factors =1 x 54 = 54
LCM(18,36,11,69) = ( 18 × 36 × 11 × 69 ) / 54
LCM(18,36,11,69) = 491832 / 54
LCM(18,36,11,69) = 9108
