Lets's calculate LCM of 168,607
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 101976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/101976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1220/168,6848/607 is 4/101976
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 168,607 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(168,607) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(168,607) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(168,607) = ( 168 × 607 ) / 1
LCM(168,607) = 101976 / 1
LCM(168,607) = 101976
