Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 95/60,72/22,10/221
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 95,72,10
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 95,72,10 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 60,22,221 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 60,22,221 is 145860 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 95,72,10
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 95
List of positive integer factors of 95 that divides 95 without a remainder.
1,5,19,95
Factors of 72

1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72
Factors of 10
List of positive integer factors of 10 that divides 10 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 95,72,10 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 95,72,10 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,22,221
2 | 60, 22, 221 |
30, 11, 221 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 30 x 11 x 221 = 145860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/145860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 95/60,72/22,10/221 is 1/145860
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 60,22,221 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,22,221) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 2
GCF(60,22,221) x common factors =1 x 2 = 2
LCM(60,22,221) = ( 60 × 22 × 221 ) / 2
LCM(60,22,221) = 291720 / 2
LCM(60,22,221) = 145860
