Lets's calculate LCM of 198,851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 168498
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/168498
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5879/198,1022/851 is 1/168498
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 198,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(198,851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(198,851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(198,851) = ( 198 × 851 ) / 1
LCM(198,851) = 168498 / 1
LCM(198,851) = 168498
