A squarefree divisor of an integer is a divisor that is a squarefree integer. It is specified by choosing a subset of the distinct prime factors of .
For positive integers , the greatest common divisor scales by the common multiplier . If , then is a common divisor of . Meanwhile Bézout's identity expresses as an integer linear combination of , so their greatest common divisor divides . These two comparisons prove the identity without prime factorization.
The least common multiple of positive integers is the smallest positive integer divisible by all of them.
