Lets's calculate LCM of 8248,9785
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 80706680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 84/80706680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 168/8248,756/9785 is 84/80706680
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 8248,9785 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(8248,9785) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(8248,9785) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(8248,9785) = ( 8248 × 9785 ) / 1
LCM(8248,9785) = 80706680 / 1
LCM(8248,9785) = 80706680
