C Program To Find LCM of N Numbers

Learn How To Find LCM of N Numbers in C Programming Language. LCM is an abbreviated form for Least Common Multiple. This Code To Calculate LCM of N Integers makes use of Functions, While Loop, For Loop and Modulus Operator.

What is LCM?

A Least Common Multiple (LCM) of Numbers is the Smallest Number which is a Multiple of all the Numbers given in a range.

Example of LCM

LCM of 4, 5 and 6 is 60.

Formula To Calculate LCM of Two Numbers

L.C.M = (x * y) / G.C.D

    Can we use malloc() function here to find lcm of n integers without Arrays?

    You have written two differents methods of looping in finding lcm of n integers. I want to know is there any difference between While loop and For loop?

      Apart from the syntax, there is not much difference in For and While Loops. At least for smaller inputs, there is no difference. However, in other languages such as C#, For loops tends to perform the execution faster compared to While loop.

    Its a felling to me, when I open the C Program to construct a game. It means that there is no problem when I open the Program to find the LCM of n numbers even the logic. I thank you to upload your simply program. So next time I appeal you to try at best level to make difficulty.

    thanks for the programs sir. 🙂
    can you please tell me the error in this code
    #include
    main()
    {
    int n,i,max,count=0;
    printf(“enter the number”);
    scanf(“%d”,&n);
    int a[n];
    for(i=0;i<=n;i++)
    {
    scanf("%d",&a[i]);
    }
    max=a[0];
    for(i=0;i<=n;i++)
    {
    if(max<=a[i])
    max=a[i];
    }
    int count2=0;
    for(i=0;i<=n;i++)
    {
    count=count+1;
    for(j=0;j<=n;j++)
    {
    if(max%a[j]==0)
    ++count2;
    }
    if(count2==n)
    break;
    else
    max=max*count;
    }
    printf("lcm is %d",max);
    }
