Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 721, 462, 238 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 721, 462, 238 is 7.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 721, 462, 238 is 7
Given Input Data is 721, 462, 238
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 721 is 7 x 103
Prime Factorization of 462 is 2 x 3 x 7 x 11
Prime Factorization of 238 is 2 x 7 x 17
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 71
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 7
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(721, 462) = 47586
GCD(721, 462) = ( 721 x 462 ) / 47586
GCD(721, 462) = 333102 / 47586
GCD(721, 462) = 7
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 7 as first number and the next as 238
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(7, 238) = 238
GCD(7, 238) = ( 7 x 238 ) / 238
GCD(7, 238) = 1666 / 238
GCD(7, 238) = 7
GCD of 721, 462, 238 is 7
