Finding GCD of 251, 956, 172 using LCM Formula

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(251, 956) = 239956

GCD(251, 956) = ( 251 x 956 ) / 239956

GCD(251, 956) = 239956 / 239956

GCD(251, 956) = 1


Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 172

The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)

LCM(1, 172) = 172

GCD(1, 172) = ( 1 x 172 ) / 172

GCD(1, 172) = 172 / 172

GCD(1, 172) = 1

GCD of 251, 956, 172 is 1
