Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 972, 855, 178, 738 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 972, 855, 178, 738 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 972, 855, 178, 738 is 1
Given Input Data is 972, 855, 178, 738
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 855 is 3 x 3 x 5 x 19
Prime Factorization of 178 is 2 x 89
Prime Factorization of 738 is 2 x 3 x 3 x 41
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, 855) = 92340
GCD(972, 855) = ( 972 x 855 ) / 92340
GCD(972, 855) = 831060 / 92340
GCD(972, 855) = 9
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 9 as first number and the next as 178
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(9, 178) = 1602
GCD(9, 178) = ( 9 x 178 ) / 1602
GCD(9, 178) = 1602 / 1602
GCD(9, 178) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 738
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 738) = 738
GCD(1, 738) = ( 1 x 738 ) / 738
GCD(1, 738) = 738 / 738
GCD(1, 738) = 1
GCD of 972, 855, 178, 738 is 1
