So the greatest common factor 4246,2336 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 351,2213
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 776763
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/776763
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4246/351,2336/2213 is 2/776763
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 351,2213 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(351,2213) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(351,2213) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(351,2213) = ( 351 × 2213 ) / 1
LCM(351,2213) = 776763 / 1
LCM(351,2213) = 776763
