Lets's calculate LCM of 346,2463
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 852198
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/852198
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8398/346,4234/2463 is 2/852198
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 346,2463 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(346,2463) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(346,2463) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(346,2463) = ( 346 × 2463 ) / 1
LCM(346,2463) = 852198 / 1
LCM(346,2463) = 852198
