Lets's calculate LCM of 257,9744
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2504208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2504208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1551/257,6405/9744 is 3/2504208
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 257,9744 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,9744) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,9744) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,9744) = ( 257 × 9744 ) / 1
LCM(257,9744) = 2504208 / 1
LCM(257,9744) = 2504208
