Lets's calculate LCM of 256,4404
2 | 256, 4404 |
2 | 128, 2202 |
64, 1101 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 64 x 1101 = 281856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/281856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5993/256,6761/4404 is 1/281856
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 256,4404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,4404) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,4404) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(256,4404) = ( 256 × 4404 ) / 4
LCM(256,4404) = 1127424 / 4
LCM(256,4404) = 281856
