Finding GCD of 540, 972, 50, 231 using Prime Factorization

Given Input Data is 540, 972, 50, 231

Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially

Prime Factorization of 540 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 5

Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3

Prime Factorization of 50 is 2 x 5 x 5

Prime Factorization of 231 is 3 x 7 x 11

The above numbers do not have any common prime factor. So GCD is 1

Finding GCD of 540, 972, 50, 231 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(540, 972) = 4860

GCD(540, 972) = ( 540 x 972 ) / 4860

GCD(540, 972) = 524880 / 4860

GCD(540, 972) = 108


Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 108 as first number and the next as 50

The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)

LCM(108, 50) = 2700

GCD(108, 50) = ( 108 x 50 ) / 2700

GCD(108, 50) = 5400 / 2700

GCD(108, 50) = 2


Step3:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 231

The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)

LCM(2, 231) = 462

GCD(2, 231) = ( 2 x 231 ) / 462

GCD(2, 231) = 462 / 462

GCD(2, 231) = 1

GCD of 540, 972, 50, 231 is 1
