Answer:

  LCM(A, B) = AB/GCF(A, B)

Step-by-step explanation:

You want a response to Aiko's claim that the LCM of two numbers is their product.

LCM

If two numbers have no common factor, Aiko's description of the LCM is correct.

If the two numbers have a common factor, that factor will be repeated in the product of the two numbers. Hence the product will not be the least common multiple. The product must be divided by the greatest common factor to form the LCM.

  LCM(A, B) = AB/GCF(A, B)
