✓
Answer
The factors of $84$ are $1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84$
The factors of $98$ are $1, 2, 7, 14, 49, 98$
The common factors of $84$ and $98$ are $1, 2, 7, 14$
The $H.C.F.$ of $84$ and $98$ is $14$
Dividing both the numerator and the denominator by the
$H.C.F \frac{84}{98}=\frac{84\div14}{98\div14}=\frac{6}{7}$
