So the greatest common factor 992,255 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 115,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 110515
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/110515
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 992/115,255/961 is 1/110515
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 115,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(115,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(115,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(115,961) = ( 115 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(115,961) = 110515 / 1
LCM(115,961) = 110515
