    I see it's been an hour with no replies. I've given this question a lot of thought with no results BUT I wonder....

    In finding a LCM of a number (the lowest or least common multiple) the usuall practice is to divide it by 2 then a series of prime numbers. Most common series is 2, 3, 5, etc. I wonder is it's number, lowest or least, and multiple. Doesn't seem quite right, but that's the best I could find.
