Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 62/60,45/20,935/45
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 62,45,935
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 62,45,935 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 60,20,45 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 60,20,45 is 180 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 62,45,935
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,2,31,62
Factors of 45
List of positive integer factors of 45 that divides 45 without a remainder.
1,3,5,9,15,45
Factors of 935
List of positive integer factors of 935 that divides 935 without a remainder.
1,5,11,17,55,85,187,935
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 62,45,935 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 62,45,935 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,20,45
2 | 60, 20, 45 |
2 | 30, 10, 45 |
3 | 15, 5, 45 |
5 | 5, 5, 15 |
1, 1, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 1 x 1 x 3 = 180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 62/60,45/20,935/45 is 1/180
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 60,20,45 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,20,45) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 60
GCF(60,20,45) x common factors =5 x 60 = 300
LCM(60,20,45) = ( 60 × 20 × 45 ) / 300
LCM(60,20,45) = 54000 / 300
LCM(60,20,45) = 180
