#  **Python: Calculate the lowest common multiple of 46850 and 129720.**

**Formula:** lcm(a, b) = a * (b//gcd(a, b))

##  **Answer:** 46850

###  **Explanation:**

*We can use the formula for finding the lowest common multiple of two numbers. 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.*
