Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 889, 357, 42, 987 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 889, 357, 42, 987 is 7.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 889, 357, 42, 987 is 7
Given Input Data is 889, 357, 42, 987
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 889 is 7 x 127
Prime Factorization of 357 is 3 x 7 x 17
Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7
Prime Factorization of 987 is 3 x 7 x 47
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(889, 357) = 45339
GCD(889, 357) = ( 889 x 357 ) / 45339
GCD(889, 357) = 317373 / 45339
GCD(889, 357) = 7
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 7 as first number and the next as 42
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(7, 42) = 42
GCD(7, 42) = ( 7 x 42 ) / 42
GCD(7, 42) = 294 / 42
GCD(7, 42) = 7
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 7 as first number and the next as 987
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(7, 987) = 987
GCD(7, 987) = ( 7 x 987 ) / 987
GCD(7, 987) = 6909 / 987
GCD(7, 987) = 7
GCD of 889, 357, 42, 987 is 7
