So the greatest common factor 4262,1024 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 251,1159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 290909
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/290909
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4262/251,1024/1159 is 2/290909
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 251,1159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,1159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,1159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,1159) = ( 251 × 1159 ) / 1
LCM(251,1159) = 290909 / 1
LCM(251,1159) = 290909
