Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 940, 856, 656 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 940, 856, 656 is 4.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 940, 856, 656 is 4
Given Input Data is 940, 856, 656
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 940 is 2 x 2 x 5 x 47
Prime Factorization of 856 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 107
Prime Factorization of 656 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 41
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 22
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 4
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(940, 856) = 201160
GCD(940, 856) = ( 940 x 856 ) / 201160
GCD(940, 856) = 804640 / 201160
GCD(940, 856) = 4
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 4 as first number and the next as 656
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(4, 656) = 656
GCD(4, 656) = ( 4 x 656 ) / 656
GCD(4, 656) = 2624 / 656
GCD(4, 656) = 4
GCD of 940, 856, 656 is 4
