Least Common Multiple of 2030 and 2040 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 2030 and 2040, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(2030,2040) = 10
LCM(2030,2040) = ( 2030 × 2040) / 10
LCM(2030,2040) = 4141200 / 10
LCM(2030,2040) = 414120

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2030 and 2040 with Primes
