Finding GCD of 278, 940, 916 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(278, 940) = 130660

GCD(278, 940) = ( 278 x 940 ) / 130660

GCD(278, 940) = 261320 / 130660

GCD(278, 940) = 2


Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 916

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

LCM(2, 916) = 916

GCD(2, 916) = ( 2 x 916 ) / 916

GCD(2, 916) = 1832 / 916

GCD(2, 916) = 2

GCD of 278, 940, 916 is 2
