Lets's calculate LCM of 756,7993
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6042708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/6042708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4267/756,2142/7993 is 17/6042708
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 756,7993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(756,7993) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(756,7993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(756,7993) = ( 756 × 7993 ) / 1
LCM(756,7993) = 6042708 / 1
LCM(756,7993) = 6042708
