Prove that the greatest common divisor of two positive integ
Prove that the greatest common divisor of two positive integers divides their least common multiple.
Solution
Let two positive integer m = ad and n = bd.
then Greatest common divisor(GCD) of m and n = d
and Least common multiple(LCM) of m and n = abd
hence d is common factor between LCM and GCD
Then it is true that greatest common divisor of two positive integers divides their least common multiple.
