Greatest Common Divisior

We found the divisors of 72, 8, 73, 46 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 72, 8, 73, 46 is 1.

Therefore, GCD of numbers 72, 8, 73, 46 is 1

Given Input Data is 72, 8, 73, 46

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 8 is 2 x 2 x 2

Prime Factorization of 73 is 73

Prime Factorization of 46 is 2 x 23

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, 8) = 72

GCD(72, 8) = ( 72 x 8 ) / 72

GCD(72, 8) = 576 / 72

GCD(72, 8) = 8

Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 8 as first number and the next as 73

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

LCM(8, 73) = 584

GCD(8, 73) = ( 8 x 73 ) / 584

GCD(8, 73) = 584 / 584

GCD(8, 73) = 1

Step3:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 46

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

LCM(1, 46) = 46

GCD(1, 46) = ( 1 x 46 ) / 46

GCD(1, 46) = 46 / 46

GCD(1, 46) = 1

GCD of 72, 8, 73, 46 is 1
