Lets's calculate LCM of 167,1778
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 296926
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/296926
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6952/167,2812/1778 is 4/296926
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 167,1778 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(167,1778) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(167,1778) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(167,1778) = ( 167 × 1778 ) / 1
LCM(167,1778) = 296926 / 1
LCM(167,1778) = 296926
