Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 444, 942, 972, 978 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 444, 942, 972, 978 is 6.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 444, 942, 972, 978 is 6
Given Input Data is 444, 942, 972, 978
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 444 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 37
Prime Factorization of 942 is 2 x 3 x 157
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 978 is 2 x 3 x 163
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 21 x 31
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 6
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(444, 942) = 69708
GCD(444, 942) = ( 444 x 942 ) / 69708
GCD(444, 942) = 418248 / 69708
GCD(444, 942) = 6
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 6 as first number and the next as 972
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(6, 972) = 972
GCD(6, 972) = ( 6 x 972 ) / 972
GCD(6, 972) = 5832 / 972
GCD(6, 972) = 6
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 6 as first number and the next as 978
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(6, 978) = 978
GCD(6, 978) = ( 6 x 978 ) / 978
GCD(6, 978) = 5868 / 978
GCD(6, 978) = 6
GCD of 444, 942, 972, 978 is 6
