Lets's calculate LCM of 599,397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 237803
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/237803
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 844/599,945/397 is 1/237803
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 599,397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(599,397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(599,397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(599,397) = ( 599 × 397 ) / 1
LCM(599,397) = 237803 / 1
LCM(599,397) = 237803
