Sum of first N natural numbers which are divisible by X or Y

Given a number N. Given two numbers X and Y, the task is to find the sum of all those numbers from 1 to N that are divisible by X or by Y.
Examples

Input : N = 20
Output : 98

Input : N = 14 
Output : 45

Approach: To solve the problem, follow the below steps:
->Find the sum of numbers that are divisible by X upto N. Denote it by S1. 
->Find the sum of numbers that are divisible by Y upto N. Denote it by S2. 
->Find the sum of numbers that are divisible by both X and Y upto N. Denote it by S3. 
->The final answer will be S1 + S2 – S3.
In order to find the sum, we can use the general formula of A.P. which is: 
 

Sn = (n/2) * {2*a + (n-1)*d}

For S1: The total numbers that will be divisible by X upto N will be N/X and the sum will be: 
 

Hence, 
S1 = ((N/X)/2) * (2 * X + (N/X - 1) * X)

For S2: The total numbers that will be divisible by Y upto N will be N/Y and the sum will be: 
 

Hence, 
S2 = ((N/Y)/2) * (2 * Y + (N/Y - 1) * Y)

For S3: The total numbers that will be divisible by both X and Y upto N will be N/lcm(X, Y) and the sum will be: 
 

Hence, 
S2 = ((N/lcm(X, Y))/2) * ((2 * lcm(X,Y)) + (N/lcm(X,Y) - 1) * lcm(X,Y))/2

Therefore, the result will be: 
 

S = S1 + S2 - S3

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

// 1 to N which are divisible by X or Y
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
int gcd(int a, int b)
{
    if (a == 0)
        return b;
    return gcd(b % a, a);
}
  
// Function to return LCM of two numbers
int lcm(int a, int b)
{
    return (a / gcd(a, b)) * b;
}
 
// Function to calculate the sum
// of numbers divisible by X or Y
int sum(int N, int X, int Y)
{
    int S1, S2, S3;
 
    S1 = ((N / X)) * (2 * X + (N / X - 1) * X) / 2;
    S2 = ((N / Y)) * (2 * Y + (N / Y - 1) * Y) / 2;
    S3 = ((N / lcm(X,Y))) * (2 * (lcm(X,Y))
                      + (N / (lcm(X,Y)) - 1) * (lcm(X,Y)))/ 2;
 
    return S1 + S2 - S3;
}

    return 0;
}

        S2 = ((N / Y)) * (2 * Y + (N / Y - 1) * Y) / 2;
        S3 = ((N / ( lcm(X, Y)))) * (2 * ( lcm(X, Y))
                          + (N / ( lcm(X, Y)) - 1) * ( lcm(X, Y)))/ 2;
