python code to find lcm code example
Example 1: lcm python
def compute_gcd(x, y):
while(y):
x, y = y, x % y
return x
def compute_lcm(x, y):
lcm = (x*y)//compute_gcd(x,y)
return lcm
num1 = 54
num2 = 24
print("The L.C.M. is", compute_lcm(num1, num2))
Example 2: best way to find lcm of a number python
def compute_lcm(x, y):
if x > y:
greater = x
else:
greater = y
while(True):
if((greater % x == 0) and (greater % y == 0)):
lcm = greater
break
greater += 1
return lcm
num1 = 54
num2 = 24
print("The L.C.M. is", compute_lcm(num1, num2))
