Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 82/57,90/24,38/90
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 82,90,38
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 82,90,38 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 57,24,90 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 57,24,90 is 6840 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 82,90,38
2 | 82, 90, 38 |
41, 45, 19 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Factors of 82
List of positive integer factors of 82 that divides 82 without a remainder.
1,2,41,82
Factors of 90
List of positive integer factors of 90 that divides 90 without a remainder.
1,2,3,5,6,9,10,15,18,30,45,90
Factors of 38
List of positive integer factors of 38 that divides 38 without a remainder.
1,2,19,38
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 82,90,38 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 82,90,38 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,24,90
2 | 57, 24, 90 |
3 | 57, 12, 45 |
19, 4, 15 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 19 x 4 x 15 = 6840
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/6840
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 82/57,90/24,38/90 is 2/6840
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 57,24,90 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,24,90) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 6
GCF(57,24,90) x common factors =3 x 6 = 18
LCM(57,24,90) = ( 57 × 24 × 90 ) / 18
LCM(57,24,90) = 123120 / 18
LCM(57,24,90) = 6840
