So the Greatest Common Divisior 86, 62, 42 is 2.

Therefore, GCD of numbers 86, 62, 42 is 2

Given Input Data is 86, 62, 42

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

Prime Factorization of 86 is 2 x 43

Prime Factorization of 62 is 2 x 31

Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7

Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 2¹

Multiplying them we get the GCD as 2

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(86, 62) = 2666

GCD(86, 62) = ( 86 x 62 ) / 2666

GCD(86, 62) = 5332 / 2666

GCD(86, 62) = 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

GCD of 86, 62, 42 is 2
