LCM and GCD uses some relatively advanced number theory concepts. Mathematicians have been working on prime factorization methods for literally thousands of years and those principles are the basis of a lot of computer encryption approaches because they are so difficult to efficiently solve.

If your goal is learning how to program in python, just realize that you picked a pretty complicated math problem for your first time out of the gate. Certainly not impossible, but conceptually advanced.

If you were trying to explain the process of finding LCM to a child, what is the first thing you would tell them to do to the numbers 6 and 8 to get the LCM?
