Lets's calculate LCM of 256,6123
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1567488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/1567488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3588/256,4564/6123 is 4/1567488
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 256,6123 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,6123) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,6123) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,6123) = ( 256 × 6123 ) / 1
LCM(256,6123) = 1567488 / 1
LCM(256,6123) = 1567488
