Least Common Multiple of 2020 and 2034 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 2020 and 2034, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(2020,2034) = 2
LCM(2020,2034) = ( 2020 × 2034) / 2
LCM(2020,2034) = 4108680 / 2
LCM(2020,2034) = 2054340

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2020 and 2034 with Primes
