Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 500, 242, 722, 956 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 500, 242, 722, 956 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 500, 242, 722, 956 is 2
Given Input Data is 500, 242, 722, 956
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 500 is 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 x 5
Prime Factorization of 242 is 2 x 11 x 11
Prime Factorization of 722 is 2 x 19 x 19
Prime Factorization of 956 is 2 x 2 x 239
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(500, 242) = 60500
GCD(500, 242) = ( 500 x 242 ) / 60500
GCD(500, 242) = 121000 / 60500
GCD(500, 242) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 722
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 722) = 722
GCD(2, 722) = ( 2 x 722 ) / 722
GCD(2, 722) = 1444 / 722
GCD(2, 722) = 2
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 956
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 956) = 956
GCD(2, 956) = ( 2 x 956 ) / 956
GCD(2, 956) = 1912 / 956
GCD(2, 956) = 2
GCD of 500, 242, 722, 956 is 2
