Lets's calculate LCM of 256,637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 163072
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/163072
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8112/256,1797/637 is 3/163072
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 256,637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,637) = ( 256 × 637 ) / 1
LCM(256,637) = 163072 / 1
LCM(256,637) = 163072
