So the greatest common factor 511,256 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 269,422
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 113518
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/113518
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 511/269,256/422 is 1/113518
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 269,422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(269,422) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(269,422) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(269,422) = ( 269 × 422 ) / 1
LCM(269,422) = 113518 / 1
LCM(269,422) = 113518
