Bergmann, Marcus S., convert of the L.J.S., is well-known as a missionary of the L.C.M. and translator of the Bible into Yiddish.

Least Common Multiple, or L.C.M., of two numbers, is the least number of which they are both factors.

Thus, since 144 = 24�32, and 756 = 22�33�7, the L.C.M. of 144 and 756 is 24�33�7.

It is clear, from comparison with the last paragraph, that the product of the G.C.D. and the L.C.M. of two numbers is equal to the product of the numbers themselves.

This gives a rule for finding the L.C.M. of two numbers.
