Lets's calculate LCM of 256,5149
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1318144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1318144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4187/256,8554/5149 is 1/1318144
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 256,5149 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,5149) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,5149) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,5149) = ( 256 × 5149 ) / 1
LCM(256,5149) = 1318144 / 1
LCM(256,5149) = 1318144
