Least Common Multiple of 30000 and 30012 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 30000 and 30012, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(30000,30012) = 12
LCM(30000,30012) = ( 30000 × 30012) / 12
LCM(30000,30012) = 900360000 / 12
LCM(30000,30012) = 75030000

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 30000 and 30012 with Primes
