--description--

The least common multiple of 12 and 18 is 36, because 12 is a factor (12 × 3 = 36), and 18 is a factor (18 × 2 = 36), and there is no positive integer less than 36 that has both factors. As a special case, if either $m$ or $n$ is zero, then the least common multiple is zero. One way to calculate the least common multiple is to iterate all the multiples of $m$, until you find one that is also a multiple of $n$. If you already have $gcd$ for <a href="https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Greatest_common_divisor" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">greatest common divisor</a>, then this formula calculates $lcm$.

$$ \operatorname{lcm}(m, n) = \frac{|m \times n|}{\operatorname{gcd}(m, n)} $$

--instructions--

Compute the least common multiple of an array of integers. Given m and n, the least common multiple is the smallest positive integer that has both m and n as factors.

--hints--

LCM should be a function.

assert(typeof LCM == 'function');

LCM([2, 4, 8]) should return a number.

assert(typeof LCM([2, 4, 8]) == 'number');

LCM([2, 4, 8]) should return 8.

assert.equal(LCM([2, 4, 8]), 8);

LCM([4, 8, 12]) should return 24.

assert.equal(LCM([4, 8, 12]), 24);

LCM([3, 4, 5, 12, 40]) should return 120.

assert.equal(LCM([3, 4, 5, 12, 40]), 120);

LCM([11, 33, 90]) should return 990.

assert.equal(LCM([11, 33, 90]), 990);

LCM([-50, 25, -45, -18, 90, 447]) should return 67050.

assert.equal(LCM([-50, 25, -45, -18, 90, 447]), 67050);
