So the greatest common factor 1043,3255 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 259,7339
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1900801
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1900801
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1043/259,3255/7339 is 7/1900801
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 259,7339 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(259,7339) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(259,7339) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(259,7339) = ( 259 × 7339 ) / 1
LCM(259,7339) = 1900801 / 1
LCM(259,7339) = 1900801
