Lets's calculate LCM of 69,848
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58512
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/58512
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 398/69,148/848 is 2/58512
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 69,848 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(69,848) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(69,848) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(69,848) = ( 69 × 848 ) / 1
LCM(69,848) = 58512 / 1
LCM(69,848) = 58512
