<p>The LCM or Least Common Multiple of numbers is the smallest number which can be exactly divisible by each of the numbers. It can also be defined as the least common number, which is a common multiple of the numbers given. LCM helps in scheduling and coordinating prices, events, also used for revising timetables, etc.</p>
