Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 89/20,43/29,47/879
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 89,43,47
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 89,43,47 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 20,29,879 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 20,29,879 is 509820 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 89,43,47
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 89
List of positive integer factors of 89 that divides 89 without a remainder.
1,89
Factors of 43
List of positive integer factors of 43 that divides 43 without a remainder.
1,43
Factors of 47
List of positive integer factors of 47 that divides 47 without a remainder.
1,47
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 89,43,47 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 89,43,47 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,29,879
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 509820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/509820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 89/20,43/29,47/879 is 1/509820
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 20,29,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,29,879) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,29,879) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,29,879) = ( 20 × 29 × 879 ) / 1
LCM(20,29,879) = 509820 / 1
LCM(20,29,879) = 509820
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
