lcm

introduction

%%visits: 2 ## intuition The relationship between the [[gcd]] and the lcm is, Let a, b be non-zero integers. Then gcd(a, b)lcm(a, b) = |ab| ## rigour the $lcm(a,b) = min({ c : a|c $and $b|c\right\})$

If a, b are integers, then a common multiple of a and b is an integer c such that a|c and b|c. The lcm is the lowest positive number which is a common multiple of a and b.
