Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 79/14,30/12,249/654
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 79,30,249
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 79,30,249 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 14,12,654 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 14,12,654 is 9156 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 79,30,249
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

Factors of 249
List of positive integer factors of 249 that divides 249 without a remainder.
1,3,83,249
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 79,30,249 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 79,30,249 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,12,654
2 | 14, 12, 654 |
3 | 7, 6, 327 |
7, 2, 109 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 7 x 2 x 109 = 9156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 79/14,30/12,249/654 is 1/9156
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 14,12,654 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,12,654) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(14,12,654) x common factors =2 x 6 = 12
LCM(14,12,654) = ( 14 × 12 × 654 ) / 12
LCM(14,12,654) = 109872 / 12
LCM(14,12,654) = 9156
