Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 366, 972, 256 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 366, 972, 256 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 366, 972, 256 is 2
Given Input Data is 366, 972, 256
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 366 is 2 x 3 x 61
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 256 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 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(366, 972) = 59292
GCD(366, 972) = ( 366 x 972 ) / 59292
GCD(366, 972) = 355752 / 59292
GCD(366, 972) = 6
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 6 as first number and the next as 256
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(6, 256) = 768
GCD(6, 256) = ( 6 x 256 ) / 768
GCD(6, 256) = 1536 / 768
GCD(6, 256) = 2
GCD of 366, 972, 256 is 2
