--description--

2520 is the smallest number that can be divided by each of the numbers from 1 to 10 without any remainder.

What is the smallest positive number that is evenly divisible by all of the numbers from 1 to n?

--hints--

smallestMult(5) should return a number.

assert(typeof smallestMult(5) === 'number');

smallestMult(5) should return 60.

assert.strictEqual(smallestMult(5), 60);

smallestMult(7) should return 420.

assert.strictEqual(smallestMult(7), 420);

smallestMult(10) should return 2520.

assert.strictEqual(smallestMult(10), 2520);

smallestMult(13) should return 360360.

assert.strictEqual(smallestMult(13), 360360);

smallestMult(20) should return 232792560.

assert.strictEqual(smallestMult(20), 232792560);

--seed--

--seed-contents--

function smallestMult(n) {

  return true;
}

smallestMult(20);

--solutions--

function smallestMult(n){
  function gcd(a, b) {
    return b === 0 ? a : gcd(b, a%b); // Euclidean algorithm
  }

  function lcm(a, b) {
    return a * b / gcd(a, b);
  }
  var result = 1;
  for(var i = 2; i <= n; i++) {
    result = lcm(result, i);
  }
  return result;
}
