Least Common Multiple of 2036 and 2050 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 2036 and 2050, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(2036,2050) = 2
LCM(2036,2050) = ( 2036 × 2050) / 2
LCM(2036,2050) = 4173800 / 2
LCM(2036,2050) = 2086900

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2036 and 2050 with Primes
