Lets's calculate LCM of 470,8729
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4102630
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/4102630
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7164/470,6816/8729 is 12/4102630
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 470,8729 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,8729) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,8729) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(470,8729) = ( 470 × 8729 ) / 1
LCM(470,8729) = 4102630 / 1
LCM(470,8729) = 4102630
