Lets's calculate LCM of 212,247
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52364
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/52364
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3458/212,7938/247 is 14/52364
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 212,247 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(212,247) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(212,247) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(212,247) = ( 212 × 247 ) / 1
LCM(212,247) = 52364 / 1
LCM(212,247) = 52364
