Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 99/97,10/37,422/29
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 99,10,422
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 99,10,422 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 97,37,29 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 97,37,29 is 104081 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 99,10,422
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Factors of 99
List of positive integer factors of 99 that divides 99 without a remainder.
1,3,9,11,33,99
Factors of 10
List of positive integer factors of 10 that divides 10 without a remainder.
1,2,5,10
Factors of 422
List of positive integer factors of 422 that divides 422 without a remainder.
1,2,211,422
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 99,10,422 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 99,10,422 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,37,29
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 104081
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/104081
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 99/97,10/37,422/29 is 1/104081
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 97,37,29 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,37,29) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,37,29) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,37,29) = ( 97 × 37 × 29 ) / 1
LCM(97,37,29) = 104081 / 1
LCM(97,37,29) = 104081
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
