Finding GCD of 84, 46, 42, 56 using LCM Formula

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(84, 46) = 1932

GCD(84, 46) = ( 84 x 46 ) / 1932

GCD(84, 46) = 3864 / 1932

GCD(84, 46) = 2


Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 42

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

LCM(2, 42) = 42

GCD(2, 42) = ( 2 x 42 ) / 42

GCD(2, 42) = 84 / 42

GCD(2, 42) = 2


Step3:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 56

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

LCM(2, 56) = 56

GCD(2, 56) = ( 2 x 56 ) / 56

GCD(2, 56) = 112 / 56

GCD(2, 56) = 2

GCD of 84, 46, 42, 56 is 2
