1, 2, 89, 178
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 480, 126, 178 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 480, 126, 178 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 480, 126, 178 is 2
Given Input Data is 480, 126, 178
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 480 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
Prime Factorization of 126 is 2 x 3 x 3 x 7
Prime Factorization of 178 is 2 x 89
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(480, 126) = 10080
GCD(480, 126) = ( 480 x 126 ) / 10080
GCD(480, 126) = 60480 / 10080
GCD(480, 126) = 6
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 6 as first number and the next as 178
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(6, 178) = 534
GCD(6, 178) = ( 6 x 178 ) / 534
GCD(6, 178) = 1068 / 534
GCD(6, 178) = 2
GCD of 480, 126, 178 is 2
