Finding GCD of 42, 54, 28 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(42, 54) = 378
GCD(42, 54) = ( 42 x 54 ) / 378
GCD(42, 54) = 2268 / 378
GCD(42, 54) = 6
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 6 as first number and the next as 28
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(6, 28) = 84
GCD(6, 28) = ( 6 x 28 ) / 84
GCD(6, 28) = 168 / 84
GCD(6, 28) = 2
GCD of 42, 54, 28 is 2
