Lets's calculate LCM of 47,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 38681
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/38681
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/47,914/823 is 2/38681
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 47,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,823) = ( 47 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(47,823) = 38681 / 1
LCM(47,823) = 38681
