Lets's calculate LCM of 529,1998
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1056942
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/1056942
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6828/529,9588/1998 is 12/1056942
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 529,1998 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(529,1998) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(529,1998) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(529,1998) = ( 529 × 1998 ) / 1
LCM(529,1998) = 1056942 / 1
LCM(529,1998) = 1056942
