Lets's calculate LCM of 99,928
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 91872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 406/91872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 812/99,2842/928 is 406/91872
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 99,928 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,928) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,928) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,928) = ( 99 × 928 ) / 1
LCM(99,928) = 91872 / 1
LCM(99,928) = 91872
