Least Common Multiple of 2021 and 2027 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 2021 and 2027, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(2021,2027) = 1
LCM(2021,2027) = ( 2021 × 2027) / 1
LCM(2021,2027) = 4096567 / 1
LCM(2021,2027) = 4096567

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2021 and 2027 with Primes
