A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 which has no divisor other than 1 and itself.
example :
The least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest non zero number which is a multiple of both numbers.
considering the L.C.M of two primes :
#2 and 3# , here the L.C.M =#2 xx 3 = 6# # 3 and 5# , L.C.M =# 3 xx 5 = 15# #2 and 7# , L.C.M =#2 xx 7 = 14#
