amistre64 · Answer

im not sure what method that would be, but it might include prime factorizations

amistre64 · Answer

GCD is the intersection, or the prime factors they have in common

LCM is the union, or inclusion of all the prime factors

amistre64 · Answer

18 = {2,3,3}
10 = {2,5}

GCD = 2,  LCM = 2,3,3,5 (90)
