Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 83/77,82/23,88/15
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 83,82,88
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 83,82,88 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 77,23,15 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 77,23,15 is 26565 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 83,82,88
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,83
Factors of 82
List of positive integer factors of 82 that divides 82 without a remainder.
1,2,41,82
Factors of 88
List of positive integer factors of 88 that divides 88 without a remainder.
1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 83,82,88 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 83,82,88 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,23,15
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 83/77,82/23,88/15 is 1/26565
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 77,23,15 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,23,15) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,23,15) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,23,15) = ( 77 × 23 × 15 ) / 1
LCM(77,23,15) = 26565 / 1
LCM(77,23,15) = 26565
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
