Lets's calculate LCM of 217,8843
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1918931
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1918931
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3148/217,4446/8843 is 2/1918931
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 217,8843 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(217,8843) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(217,8843) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(217,8843) = ( 217 × 8843 ) / 1
LCM(217,8843) = 1918931 / 1
LCM(217,8843) = 1918931
