Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 462, 972, 466 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 462, 972, 466 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 462, 972, 466 is 2
Given Input Data is 462, 972, 466
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 462 is 2 x 3 x 7 x 11
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 466 is 2 x 233
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(462, 972) = 74844
GCD(462, 972) = ( 462 x 972 ) / 74844
GCD(462, 972) = 449064 / 74844
GCD(462, 972) = 6
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 6 as first number and the next as 466
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(6, 466) = 1398
GCD(6, 466) = ( 6 x 466 ) / 1398
GCD(6, 466) = 2796 / 1398
GCD(6, 466) = 2
GCD of 462, 972, 466 is 2
