Lets's calculate LCM of 446,817
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 364382
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/364382
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2822/446,1942/817 is 2/364382
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 446,817 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(446,817) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(446,817) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(446,817) = ( 446 × 817 ) / 1
LCM(446,817) = 364382 / 1
LCM(446,817) = 364382
