Greatest Common Divisior

We found the divisors of 72, 12, 37 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 72, 12, 37 is 1.

Therefore, GCD of numbers 72, 12, 37 is 1

Given Input Data is 72, 12, 37

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

Prime Factorization of 72 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3

Prime Factorization of 12 is 2 x 2 x 3

Prime Factorization of 37 is 37

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

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(72, 12) = 72

GCD(72, 12) = ( 72 x 12 ) / 72

GCD(72, 12) = 864 / 72

GCD(72, 12) = 12

Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 12 as first number and the next as 37

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

LCM(12, 37) = 444

GCD(12, 37) = ( 12 x 37 ) / 444

GCD(12, 37) = 444 / 444

GCD(12, 37) = 1

GCD of 72, 12, 37 is 1
