#*******************************************
##PROGRAM STEPS:
##1.Take in both the integers and store it in separate variables.
##2.Find which of the integer among the two is smaller and store it in a separate variable.
##3.Use a while loop whose condition is always True until break is used.
##4.Use an if statement to check if both the numbers are divisible by the minimum number and increment otherwise.
##5.Print the final LCM.
##6.Exit.
