So the greatest common factor 8463,2115 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,421
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41679
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/41679
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8463/99,2115/421 is 3/41679
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 99,421 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,421) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,421) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,421) = ( 99 × 421 ) / 1
LCM(99,421) = 41679 / 1
LCM(99,421) = 41679
