Lets's calculate LCM of 899,962
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 864838
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/864838
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 813/899,642/962 is 3/864838
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 899,962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(899,962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(899,962) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(899,962) = ( 899 × 962 ) / 1
LCM(899,962) = 864838 / 1
LCM(899,962) = 864838
