Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 9/59,199/61,599/44
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 9,199,599
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 9,199,599 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 59,61,44 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 59,61,44 is 158356 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 9,199,599
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 9
List of positive integer factors of 9 that divides 9 without a remainder.
1,3,9
Factors of 199
List of positive integer factors of 199 that divides 199 without a remainder.
1,199
Factors of 599
List of positive integer factors of 599 that divides 599 without a remainder.
1,599
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9,199,599 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9,199,599 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 59,61,44
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158356
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/158356
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9/59,199/61,599/44 is 1/158356
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 59,61,44 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(59,61,44) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(59,61,44) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(59,61,44) = ( 59 × 61 × 44 ) / 1
LCM(59,61,44) = 158356 / 1
LCM(59,61,44) = 158356
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
