Lets's calculate LCM of 671,214
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 143594
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/143594
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 962/671,4492/214 is 2/143594
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 671,214 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(671,214) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(671,214) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(671,214) = ( 671 × 214 ) / 1
LCM(671,214) = 143594 / 1
LCM(671,214) = 143594
