Lets's calculate LCM of 349,9581
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3343769
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3343769
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1256/349,4311/9581 is 1/3343769
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 349,9581 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(349,9581) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(349,9581) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(349,9581) = ( 349 × 9581 ) / 1
LCM(349,9581) = 3343769 / 1
LCM(349,9581) = 3343769
