Therefore, GCD of numbers 26, 88, 42, 16 is 2

Given Input Data is 26, 88, 42, 16

Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially

Prime Factorization of 26 is 2 x 13

Prime Factorization of 88 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11

Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7

Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

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(26, 88) = 1144

GCD(26, 88) = ( 26 x 88 ) / 1144

GCD(26, 88) = 2288 / 1144

GCD(26, 88) = 2

Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 42

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

LCM(2, 42) = 42

GCD(2, 42) = ( 2 x 42 ) / 42

GCD(2, 42) = 84 / 42

GCD(2, 42) = 2

Step3:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 16

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

LCM(2, 16) = 16

GCD(2, 16) = ( 2 x 16 ) / 16

GCD(2, 16) = 32 / 16

GCD(2, 16) = 2

GCD of 26, 88, 42, 16 is 2
