Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 73/87,41/11,91/862
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 73,41,91
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 73,41,91 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 87,11,862 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 87,11,862 is 824934 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 73,41,91
∴ 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 41
List of positive integer factors of 41 that divides 41 without a remainder.
1,41
Factors of 91
List of positive integer factors of 91 that divides 91 without a remainder.
1,7,13,91
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 73,41,91 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 73,41,91 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,11,862
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 824934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/824934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 73/87,41/11,91/862 is 1/824934
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 87,11,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,11,862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,11,862) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,11,862) = ( 87 × 11 × 862 ) / 1
LCM(87,11,862) = 824934 / 1
LCM(87,11,862) = 824934
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
