Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 73/82,55/53,538/845
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 73,55,538
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 73,55,538 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 82,53,845 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 82,53,845 is 3672370 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 73,55,538
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 73
List of positive integer factors of 73 that divides 73 without a remainder.
1,73
Factors of 55
List of positive integer factors of 55 that divides 55 without a remainder.
1,5,11,55
Factors of 538
List of positive integer factors of 538 that divides 538 without a remainder.
1,2,269,538
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 73,55,538 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 73,55,538 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 82,53,845
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3672370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3672370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/82,55/53,538/845 is 1/3672370
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 82,53,845 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(82,53,845) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(82,53,845) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(82,53,845) = ( 82 × 53 × 845 ) / 1
LCM(82,53,845) = 3672370 / 1
LCM(82,53,845) = 3672370
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
