Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 66/12,25/16,182/43
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 66,25,182
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 66,25,182 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 12,16,43 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 12,16,43 is 2064 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 66,25,182
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 66
List of positive integer factors of 66 that divides 66 without a remainder.
1,2,3,6,11,22,33,66
Factors of 25
List of positive integer factors of 25 that divides 25 without a remainder.
1,5,25
Factors of 182
List of positive integer factors of 182 that divides 182 without a remainder.
1,2,7,13,14,26,91,182
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 66,25,182 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 66,25,182 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,16,43
2 | 12, 16, 43 |
2 | 6, 8, 43 |
3, 4, 43 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 4 x 43 = 2064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 66/12,25/16,182/43 is 1/2064
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 12,16,43 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,16,43) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 4
GCF(12,16,43) x common factors =1 x 4 = 4
LCM(12,16,43) = ( 12 × 16 × 43 ) / 4
LCM(12,16,43) = 8256 / 4
LCM(12,16,43) = 2064
