Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 740, 261, 12, 637 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 740, 261, 12, 637 is 1
GCD(740, 261, 12, 637) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 740, 261, 12, 637 is 1
GCD(740, 261, 12, 637) = 1
Given Input numbers are 740, 261, 12, 637
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number

1, 7, 13, 49, 91, 637
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 740, 261, 12, 637 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 740, 261, 12, 637 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 740, 261, 12, 637 is 1
Given Input Data is 740, 261, 12, 637
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 740 is 2 x 2 x 5 x 37
Prime Factorization of 261 is 3 x 3 x 29
Prime Factorization of 12 is 2 x 2 x 3
Prime Factorization of 637 is 7 x 7 x 13
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(740, 261) = 193140
GCD(740, 261) = ( 740 x 261 ) / 193140
GCD(740, 261) = 193140 / 193140
GCD(740, 261) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 12
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 12) = 12
GCD(1, 12) = ( 1 x 12 ) / 12
GCD(1, 12) = 12 / 12
GCD(1, 12) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 637
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 637) = 637
GCD(1, 637) = ( 1 x 637 ) / 637
GCD(1, 637) = 637 / 637
GCD(1, 637) = 1
GCD of 740, 261, 12, 637 is 1
