Enter two or more fractions separated by "commas"
Ex: 2/3, 5/7 or 3/5, 5/9, 7/3
Given fractions are 991/16,937/75,217/199
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 991,937,217
Greatest Common Factor of Numerators i.e. GCF of 991,937,217 is 1 .
LCM of Denominators means LCM of 16,75,199 as per the given fractions.
LCM of 16,75,199 is 238800 as it is the smallest common factor for both these numbers.
Lets's calculate GCF of 991,937,217
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.

1,937
Factors of 217
List of positive integer factors of 217 that divides 217 without a remainder.
1,7,31,217
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 991,937,217 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 991,937,217 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 16,75,199
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 238800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/238800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 991/16,937/75,217/199 is 1/238800
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 16,75,199 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(16,75,199) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(16,75,199) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(16,75,199) = ( 16 × 75 × 199 ) / 1
LCM(16,75,199) = 238800 / 1
LCM(16,75,199) = 238800
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
