C++ Example - Find the Least Common Multiple of Two Numbers

C++ Examples

The user inputs two numbers, and the least common multiple of these two numbers is calculated.

Example

#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int n1, n2, max; cout << "Enter two numbers:"; cin >> n1 >> n2; //Get the largest number max = (n1 > n2) ? n1 : n2; do { if (max % n1 == 0 && max % n2 == 0) { cout << "LCM = " << max; break; } else ++max; } while (true); return 0; }

The output of the above program execution is:

输入两个数: 12
18
LCM = 36

Example

#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int n1, n2, hcf, temp, lcm; cout << "Enter two numbers:"; cin >> n1 >> n2; hcf = n1; temp = n2; while(hcf != temp) { if(hcf > temp) hcf -= temp; else temp -= hcf; } lcm = (n1 * n2) / hcf; cout << "LCM = " << lcm; return 0; }

The output of the above program execution is:

输入两个整数: 78
52
HCF = 156
