Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 8/87,383/86,517/94
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 8,383,517
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 8,383,517 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 87,86,94 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 87,86,94 is 351654 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 8,383,517
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 8
List of positive integer factors of 8 that divides 8 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8
Factors of 383
List of positive integer factors of 383 that divides 383 without a remainder.
1,383
Factors of 517
List of positive integer factors of 517 that divides 517 without a remainder.
1,11,47,517
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8,383,517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8,383,517 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,86,94
2 | 87, 86, 94 |
87, 43, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 87 x 43 x 47 = 351654
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/351654
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8/87,383/86,517/94 is 1/351654
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 87,86,94 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,86,94) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(87,86,94) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(87,86,94) = ( 87 × 86 × 94 ) / 2
LCM(87,86,94) = 703308 / 2
LCM(87,86,94) = 351654
