Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 74/26,91/97,737/23
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 74,91,737
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 74,91,737 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 26,97,23 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 26,97,23 is 58006 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 74,91,737
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 74
List of positive integer factors of 74 that divides 74 without a remainder.
1,2,37,74
Factors of 91
List of positive integer factors of 91 that divides 91 without a remainder.
1,7,13,91
Factors of 737
List of positive integer factors of 737 that divides 737 without a remainder.
1,11,67,737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 74,91,737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 74,91,737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 26,97,23
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58006
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/58006
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 74/26,91/97,737/23 is 1/58006
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 26,97,23 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(26,97,23) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(26,97,23) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(26,97,23) = ( 26 × 97 × 23 ) / 1
LCM(26,97,23) = 58006 / 1
LCM(26,97,23) = 58006
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
