Python: Get the least common multiple (LCM) of two positive integers

Python Basic: Exercise-32 with Solution

Write a Python program to get the least common multiple (LCM) of two positive integers.

Sample Solution:-

def lcm(x, y):

   if x > y:

       z = x

   else:

       z = y

   while(True):

       if((z % x == 0) and (z % y == 0)):

           lcm = z

           break

       z += 1

   return lcm

print(lcm(4, 6))

print(lcm(15, 117))
