Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 387, 876, 972 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 387, 876, 972 is 3.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 387, 876, 972 is 3
Given Input Data is 387, 876, 972
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 387 is 3 x 3 x 43
Prime Factorization of 876 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 73
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 31
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 3
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(387, 876) = 113004
GCD(387, 876) = ( 387 x 876 ) / 113004
GCD(387, 876) = 339012 / 113004
GCD(387, 876) = 3
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 3 as first number and the next as 972
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(3, 972) = 972
GCD(3, 972) = ( 3 x 972 ) / 972
GCD(3, 972) = 2916 / 972
GCD(3, 972) = 3
GCD of 387, 876, 972 is 3
