Lets's calculate LCM of 289,257
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74273
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74273
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 325/289,9642/257 is 1/74273
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 289,257 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(289,257) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(289,257) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(289,257) = ( 289 × 257 ) / 1
LCM(289,257) = 74273 / 1
LCM(289,257) = 74273
