Lets's calculate LCM of 849,244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 207156
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/207156
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7916/849,1429/244 is 1/207156
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 849,244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(849,244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(849,244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(849,244) = ( 849 × 244 ) / 1
LCM(849,244) = 207156 / 1
LCM(849,244) = 207156
