Number theory is the branch of pure mathematics studying integers and their properties: prime numbers, divisibility, GCD, LCM, modular arithmetic, and Diophantine equations.

Fórmula

LCM(a,b) = a×b / GCD(a,b)
LCM
a×b / GCD(a — a×b / GCD(a
GCD
GCD value — Variable used in the calculation

Guia passo a passo

  1. 1Prime: divisible only by 1 and itself; test by trial division up to √n
  2. 2GCD: Euclidean algorithm — repeatedly apply modulo
  3. 3LCM(a,b) = a×b / GCD(a,b)
  4. 4Modular arithmetic: a ≡ b (mod n) if n divides (a−b)
