Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 170, 448, 972 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 170, 448, 972 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 170, 448, 972 is 2
Given Input Data is 170, 448, 972
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 170 is 2 x 5 x 17
Prime Factorization of 448 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 7
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 21
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 2
Step1:
Let's calculate the GCD of first two numbers
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(170, 448) = 38080
GCD(170, 448) = ( 170 x 448 ) / 38080
GCD(170, 448) = 76160 / 38080
GCD(170, 448) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 972
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 972) = 972
GCD(2, 972) = ( 2 x 972 ) / 972
GCD(2, 972) = 1944 / 972
GCD(2, 972) = 2
GCD of 170, 448, 972 is 2
