It's not exactly Euler Problem 1 since we need to calculate the lcm between the two numbers, but it's ok.

I got Tests 1 and 3 correct. I've made sure the MATLAB precision is no longer a factor, but somehow the other 2 were still a fair way off the correct answer.

Hi,

Your solution is almost correct but your removing duplicates at multiples of the product of mult1 & mult2. You may actually find duplicates at multiples of less than that product.

Oops! I knew I was forgetting something! Thanks for the tip Ramon.
