Correction text:
1) write \operatorname{gcd} instead of gcd. Same for lcm, max.
After the definition, you could also create a link to the entry in divisability
http://planetmath.org/encyclopedia/Divisibility.html
to explain the notation.

2) If the conditions uniquely determine lcd, that could be good
to mention; only ony number satisfies the conditions for lcd(a,b).

3) write \subsubsection*{Properties} instead of Properties. This will
boldface the text and remove the link.

4) In Prop. 1, the displayed formula should end with a period. In
Prop. 2, the first displyed formula is not part of any sentence, and
the second displyed formula should end with a period. Same thing
in Prop. 3. Sorry for being pedantic...
