Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 986, 966, 272 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 986, 966, 272 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 986, 966, 272 is 2
Given Input Data is 986, 966, 272
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 986 is 2 x 17 x 29
Prime Factorization of 966 is 2 x 3 x 7 x 23
Prime Factorization of 272 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 17
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(986, 966) = 476238
GCD(986, 966) = ( 986 x 966 ) / 476238
GCD(986, 966) = 952476 / 476238
GCD(986, 966) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 272
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 272) = 272
GCD(2, 272) = ( 2 x 272 ) / 272
GCD(2, 272) = 544 / 272
GCD(2, 272) = 2
GCD of 986, 966, 272 is 2
