                    lcm(Fraction, Fraction)
                    

                    Description

                    Given a set of integers a1, ...,an , returns the least number that is a multiple of a1, ...,an simultaneously.

                    Given a list of integers {a1,...,an} , returns the least number that is a multiple of a1, ...,an simultaneously.

                    Given a vector of integers [a1,...,an] , returns the least number that is a multiple of a1, ...,an simultaneously.

                    Given two fractions ab and cd, returns its least common multiple defined as lcm a/b,c/d=lcm(a,c)/gcd(b,d)
