Finding GCD of 98, 46, 42 using LCM Formula
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(98, 46) = 2254
GCD(98, 46) = ( 98 x 46 ) / 2254
GCD(98, 46) = 4508 / 2254
GCD(98, 46) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 42
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 42) = 42
GCD(2, 42) = ( 2 x 42 ) / 42
GCD(2, 42) = 84 / 42
GCD(2, 42) = 2
GCD of 98, 46, 42 is 2
