HCF and LCM
Definition of LCM and HCF:
 Lowest Common Multiple (LCM): The least or smallest
common multiple of any two or more given natural numbers are
termed as LCM. For example, LCM of 10, 15, and 20 is 60.

 Highest Common Factor (HCF): The largest or greatest


factor common to any two or more given natural numbers is
termed as HCF of given numbers. Also known as GCD (Greatest
Common Divisor). For example, HCF of 4, 6 and 8 is 2.
