It's named ”MGM()” in my Swedish version (Minsta Gemensamma Multipel).
Do you know that you can easily pick another language for the graphical
user interface? You need to restart LibreOffice, and then all cell
functions are in the selected language (English would be a good choice in
this case). I usually do that when I'm about to ask or reply to questions
on this mailing lists, if I need to copy and paste cell formulas or explain
how to find a certain thing in the menues. Nobody will understand
”≈OM(ÄRTAL(LETARAD(blah;blah;blah));1;0)”, for instance.
Also, do you know that you can hit Ctrl+F2 for help when creating cell
formulas? I dialogue will pop up helping you to find what you need and you
can look through cell functions by category and more. You can also see the
results of parts of your formula, making it easier to debug a faulty
formula. I found it very helpful and there's where I found the LCM()
function (although it was called MGM when I found it).
