Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 68, 972, 396, 338 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 68, 972, 396, 338 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 68, 972, 396, 338 is 2
Given Input Data is 68, 972, 396, 338
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 68 is 2 x 2 x 17
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 396 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 11
Prime Factorization of 338 is 2 x 13 x 13
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(68, 972) = 16524
GCD(68, 972) = ( 68 x 972 ) / 16524
GCD(68, 972) = 66096 / 16524
GCD(68, 972) = 4
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 4 as first number and the next as 396
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(4, 396) = 396
GCD(4, 396) = ( 4 x 396 ) / 396
GCD(4, 396) = 1584 / 396
GCD(4, 396) = 4
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 4 as first number and the next as 338
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(4, 338) = 676
GCD(4, 338) = ( 4 x 338 ) / 676
GCD(4, 338) = 1352 / 676
GCD(4, 338) = 2
GCD of 68, 972, 396, 338 is 2
