Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 950, 878, 72, 996 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 950, 878, 72, 996 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 950, 878, 72, 996 is 2
Given Input Data is 950, 878, 72, 996
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 950 is 2 x 5 x 5 x 19
Prime Factorization of 878 is 2 x 439
Prime Factorization of 72 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 996 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 83
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(950, 878) = 417050
GCD(950, 878) = ( 950 x 878 ) / 417050
GCD(950, 878) = 834100 / 417050
GCD(950, 878) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 72
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 72) = 72
GCD(2, 72) = ( 2 x 72 ) / 72
GCD(2, 72) = 144 / 72
GCD(2, 72) = 2
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 996
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 996) = 996
GCD(2, 996) = ( 2 x 996 ) / 996
GCD(2, 996) = 1992 / 996
GCD(2, 996) = 2
GCD of 950, 878, 72, 996 is 2
