Least Common Multiple of 95 and 100 with GCF Formula

The formula of LCM is LCM(a,b) = ( a × b) / GCF(a,b).
We need to calculate greatest common factor 95 and 100, than apply into the LCM equation.

GCF(95,100) = 5
LCM(95,100) = ( 95 × 100) / 5
LCM(95,100) = 9500 / 5
LCM(95,100) = 1900

Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 95 and 100 with Primes
