Lets's calculate LCM of 813,842
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 684546
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 292/684546
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1168/813,6716/842 is 292/684546
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 813,842 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(813,842) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(813,842) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(813,842) = ( 813 × 842 ) / 1
LCM(813,842) = 684546 / 1
LCM(813,842) = 684546
