Please can you help me to Calculate LCM

Question

Calculate LCM(least common multiple) for a list of numbers (a=[4,6,8], LCM = 24)

Answer 1

Here's a function that will return the LCM with two given numbers:

def compute_lcm(x, y):
   # choose the greater number
   if x > y:
       greater = x
   else:
       greater = y
   while(True):
       if((greater % x == 0) and (greater % y == 0)):
           lcm = greater
           break
       greater += 1
   return lcm
