Least Common Multiple: In arithmetic number of theory is the least common multiple or lowest common multiple (LCM) or smallest common multiple of two integers a and b is the smallest positive integer that is a multiple of both of a and of b. Since it was a multiple, it can be divided by a and b without a reminder.If either a or b is 0, so that number is no such positive integer, then LCM(a, b) is defined to be zero.Now let us find least common multiple,Multiples of 4 are:4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, ......................Multiple of 7 are:7, 14, 21, ................These were some examples of least common multiple lcm.ope you like the above example of Least common Multiple.Please leave your comments, if you have any doubts.
