Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 72/77,13/36,194/643
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 72,13,194
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 72,13,194 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 77,36,643 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 77,36,643 is 1782396 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 72,13,194
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
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 13

1,13
Factors of 194
List of positive integer factors of 194 that divides 194 without a remainder.
1,2,97,194
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 72,13,194 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 72,13,194 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,36,643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1782396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1782396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 72/77,13/36,194/643 is 1/1782396
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 77,36,643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,36,643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,36,643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,36,643) = ( 77 × 36 × 643 ) / 1
LCM(77,36,643) = 1782396 / 1
LCM(77,36,643) = 1782396
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
