Finding GCD of 256, 982, 40, 958 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(256, 982) = 125696

GCD(256, 982) = ( 256 x 982 ) / 125696

GCD(256, 982) = 251392 / 125696

GCD(256, 982) = 2


Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 40

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

LCM(2, 40) = 40

GCD(2, 40) = ( 2 x 40 ) / 40

GCD(2, 40) = 80 / 40

GCD(2, 40) = 2


Step3:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 958

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

LCM(2, 958) = 958

GCD(2, 958) = ( 2 x 958 ) / 958

GCD(2, 958) = 1916 / 958

GCD(2, 958) = 2

GCD of 256, 982, 40, 958 is 2
