HCF of Two Numbers
Here, in this section, we will discuss how to find the HCF of two numbers in python. HCF means (Highest Common Factor) also known as GCD (Greatest Common Divisor)
a=36
b=24
lis=[]
for i in range(1,min(a,b)+1):
if a%i==0 and b%i==0:
lis.append(i)
print(max(lis))
LCM of two numbers in Python
Basically the LCM of two numbers is the smallest number which can divide the both numbers equally. This is also called Least Common Divisor or LCD
a=6
b=4
lis=[]
for i in range(1,min(a,b)+1):
if a%i==0 and b%i==0:
lis.append(i)
print(a*b//max(lis))
Multiples of 4 are: 4,8,12,16,20,24…
Multiples of 6 are: 6,12,18,24….
The common multiples for 4 and 6 are 12,24,36,48…and so on. The least common multiple in that lot would be 12. Let us now try to find out the LCM of 24 and 15.
