Least Common Multiple of 2201 and 2221 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 2201 and 2221, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(2201,2221) = 1
LCM(2201,2221) = ( 2201 × 2221) / 1
LCM(2201,2221) = 4888421 / 1
LCM(2201,2221) = 4888421
