Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 90/72,60/98,902/41
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 90,60,902
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 90,60,902 is 2 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 72,98,41 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 72,98,41 is 144648 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 90,60,902
2 | 90, 60, 902 |
45, 30, 451 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2

Factors of 902
List of positive integer factors of 902 that divides 902 without a remainder.
1,2,11,22,41,82,451,902
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 90,60,902 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 90,60,902 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,98,41
2 | 72, 98, 41 |
36, 49, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 36 x 49 x 41 = 144648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/144648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 90/72,60/98,902/41 is 2/144648
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 72,98,41 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,98,41) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(72,98,41) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(72,98,41) = ( 72 × 98 × 41 ) / 2
LCM(72,98,41) = 289296 / 2
LCM(72,98,41) = 144648
