Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 98/42,199/91,177/358
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 98,199,177
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 98,199,177 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 42,91,358 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 42,91,358 is 97734 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 98,199,177
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,199
Factors of 177
List of positive integer factors of 177 that divides 177 without a remainder.
1,3,59,177
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 98,199,177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 98,199,177 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,91,358
2 | 42, 91, 358 |
7 | 21, 91, 179 |
3, 13, 179 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 3 x 13 x 179 = 97734
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/97734
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 98/42,199/91,177/358 is 1/97734
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 42,91,358 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,91,358) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 14
GCF(42,91,358) x common factors =1 x 14 = 14
LCM(42,91,358) = ( 42 × 91 × 358 ) / 14
LCM(42,91,358) = 1368276 / 14
LCM(42,91,358) = 97734
