Lets's calculate LCM of 99,598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 382/99,848/598 is 2/59202
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 99,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,598) = ( 99 × 598 ) / 1
LCM(99,598) = 59202 / 1
LCM(99,598) = 59202
