Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 988, 174, 38 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 988, 174, 38 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 988, 174, 38 is 2
Given Input Data is 988, 174, 38
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 988 is 2 x 2 x 13 x 19
Prime Factorization of 174 is 2 x 3 x 29
Prime Factorization of 38 is 2 x 19
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(988, 174) = 85956
GCD(988, 174) = ( 988 x 174 ) / 85956
GCD(988, 174) = 171912 / 85956
GCD(988, 174) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 38
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 38) = 38
GCD(2, 38) = ( 2 x 38 ) / 38
GCD(2, 38) = 76 / 38
GCD(2, 38) = 2
GCD of 988, 174, 38 is 2
