Lets's calculate LCM of 312,7223
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2253576
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2253576
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4696/312,9426/7223 is 2/2253576
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 312,7223 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(312,7223) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(312,7223) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(312,7223) = ( 312 × 7223 ) / 1
LCM(312,7223) = 2253576 / 1
LCM(312,7223) = 2253576
