Lets's calculate LCM of 257,4499
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1156243
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1156243
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2386/257,6839/4499 is 1/1156243
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 257,4499 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,4499) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,4499) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,4499) = ( 257 × 4499 ) / 1
LCM(257,4499) = 1156243 / 1
LCM(257,4499) = 1156243
