Lets's calculate LCM of 255,926
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 236130
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/236130
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2492/255,5298/926 is 2/236130
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 255,926 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,926) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,926) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(255,926) = ( 255 × 926 ) / 1
LCM(255,926) = 236130 / 1
LCM(255,926) = 236130
