Least Common Multiple of 2050 and 2055 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 2050 and 2055, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(2050,2055) = 5
LCM(2050,2055) = ( 2050 × 2055) / 5
LCM(2050,2055) = 4212750 / 5
LCM(2050,2055) = 842550

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 2050 and 2055 with Primes
