In this case, a = 46850 and b = 129720.* *The greatest common divisor (gcd) of 46850 and 129720 is 50.* *We can divide b by gcd(a, b) to get the value of (b//gcd(a, b)), which is 25836.* *Finally, we multiply a by this value to get the lowest common multiple, lcm(a, b): 46850 * 25836 = 12972000.* ## **Sources:** 1.
