So the greatest common factor 8396,2608 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 85,883
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75055
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/75055
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8396/85,2608/883 is 4/75055
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 85,883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(85,883) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(85,883) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(85,883) = ( 85 × 883 ) / 1
LCM(85,883) = 75055 / 1
LCM(85,883) = 75055
