The least common multiple of the integers a and b (denoted LCM(a,b) $ LCM(a, b) $ ) is the least integer r that is divisible by both a and b. The simplest way to find the LCM of a and b is via the formula LCM(a,b)=ab/GCD(a,b) $ LCM(a, b) = ab/GCD(a, b) $ . For example, LCM(10, 4) = 10·4GCD(10,4)=10·42=20. $ \frac{10 \cdot 4}{GCD(10,4)} = \frac{10 \cdot 4}{2} = 20. $

A multiple is a number which contains another number an exact number of times. The smallest number which is exactly divisible by each of two or more numbers is called the lowest common multiple (LCM).

Let , . The left semi-tensor product of A and B is defined as , where ⊗ is the Kronecker product and is the least common multiple of n and p. When no confusion may arise it is usually called the semi-tensor product (STP).
