In arithmetic and number theory 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 a and b. ... Thus, the Euclidean algorithm for the gcd also gives us a fast algorithm for the lcm. ... 1 Efficient calculation...
