Finding GCD of 99, 12, 72 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(99, 12) = 396
GCD(99, 12) = ( 99 x 12 ) / 396
GCD(99, 12) = 1188 / 396
GCD(99, 12) = 3
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 3 as first number and the next as 72
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(3, 72) = 72
GCD(3, 72) = ( 3 x 72 ) / 72
GCD(3, 72) = 216 / 72
GCD(3, 72) = 3
GCD of 99, 12, 72 is 3
