The LCM of two coprime numbers is thier product.
Proof:
Let the two coprime numbers be p and q respectively.
Since, Coprime numbers don't have common factors other than 1, Therefore the prime factorization of p and q are:
=> p = p × 1
=> q = q × 1
We know,
LCM = product of prime factors with highest power
==> LCM = p × q × 1
==> LCM = pq
Hence, We can say that the LCM of two coprime numbers is thier product.
