Finding GCD of 60, 10, 42 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(60, 10) = 60
GCD(60, 10) = ( 60 x 10 ) / 60
GCD(60, 10) = 600 / 60
GCD(60, 10) = 10
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 10 as first number and the next as 42
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(10, 42) = 210
GCD(10, 42) = ( 10 x 42 ) / 210
GCD(10, 42) = 420 / 210
GCD(10, 42) = 2
GCD of 60, 10, 42 is 2
