Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 972, 158, 678, 185 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 972, 158, 678, 185 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 972, 158, 678, 185 is 1
Given Input Data is 972, 158, 678, 185
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 972 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 158 is 2 x 79
Prime Factorization of 678 is 2 x 3 x 113
Prime Factorization of 185 is 5 x 37
The above numbers do not have any common prime factor. So GCD is 1
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(972, 158) = 76788
GCD(972, 158) = ( 972 x 158 ) / 76788
GCD(972, 158) = 153576 / 76788
GCD(972, 158) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 678
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 678) = 678
GCD(2, 678) = ( 2 x 678 ) / 678
GCD(2, 678) = 1356 / 678
GCD(2, 678) = 2
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 185
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 185) = 370
GCD(2, 185) = ( 2 x 185 ) / 370
GCD(2, 185) = 370 / 370
GCD(2, 185) = 1
GCD of 972, 158, 678, 185 is 1
