Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 956, 378, 68, 862 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 956, 378, 68, 862 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 956, 378, 68, 862 is 2
Given Input Data is 956, 378, 68, 862
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 956 is 2 x 2 x 239
Prime Factorization of 378 is 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 7
Prime Factorization of 68 is 2 x 2 x 17
Prime Factorization of 862 is 2 x 431
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(956, 378) = 180684
GCD(956, 378) = ( 956 x 378 ) / 180684
GCD(956, 378) = 361368 / 180684
GCD(956, 378) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 68
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 68) = 68
GCD(2, 68) = ( 2 x 68 ) / 68
GCD(2, 68) = 136 / 68
GCD(2, 68) = 2
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 862
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 862) = 862
GCD(2, 862) = ( 2 x 862 ) / 862
GCD(2, 862) = 1724 / 862
GCD(2, 862) = 2
GCD of 956, 378, 68, 862 is 2
