Lets's calculate LCM of 118,599
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 70682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/70682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8688/118,9857/599 is 1/70682
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 118,599 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(118,599) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(118,599) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(118,599) = ( 118 × 599 ) / 1
LCM(118,599) = 70682 / 1
LCM(118,599) = 70682
