Lets's calculate LCM of 256,8291
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2122496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2122496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5293/256,8246/8291 is 1/2122496
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 256,8291 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,8291) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,8291) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,8291) = ( 256 × 8291 ) / 1
LCM(256,8291) = 2122496 / 1
LCM(256,8291) = 2122496
