Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 940, 980, 42, 508 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 940, 980, 42, 508 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 940, 980, 42, 508 is 2
Given Input Data is 940, 980, 42, 508
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 980 is 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 7
Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7
Prime Factorization of 508 is 2 x 2 x 127
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(940, 980) = 46060
GCD(940, 980) = ( 940 x 980 ) / 46060
GCD(940, 980) = 921200 / 46060
GCD(940, 980) = 20
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 20 as first number and the next as 42
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(20, 42) = 420
GCD(20, 42) = ( 20 x 42 ) / 420
GCD(20, 42) = 840 / 420
GCD(20, 42) = 2
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 508
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 508) = 508
GCD(2, 508) = ( 2 x 508 ) / 508
GCD(2, 508) = 1016 / 508
GCD(2, 508) = 2
GCD of 940, 980, 42, 508 is 2
