Lets's calculate LCM of 255,4508
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1149540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1149540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5159/255,5541/4508 is 1/1149540
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 255,4508 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,4508) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,4508) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(255,4508) = ( 255 × 4508 ) / 1
LCM(255,4508) = 1149540 / 1
LCM(255,4508) = 1149540
