How can yo determine whether the LCM of two numbers is the product of the numbers or less than the product of the numbers?
If their GCF is 1, their LCM is their product. If their GCF is greater than 1, their LCM is less than their product.

How can you determine if the least common multiple of 2 numbers is the product of the 2 numbers or less than the product of the 2 numbers?
If the GCF of a given pair of numbers is 1, the LCM will be equal to their product. If the GCF is greater than 1, the LCM will be less than their product. Or, stated another way, if the two numbers have no common prime factors, their LCM will be their product.
