Lets's calculate LCM of 212,7781
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1649572
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/1649572
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7476/212,1442/7781 is 14/1649572
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 212,7781 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(212,7781) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(212,7781) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(212,7781) = ( 212 × 7781 ) / 1
LCM(212,7781) = 1649572 / 1
LCM(212,7781) = 1649572
