Using Euclid’s Algorithm to construct a php script to find the GCF of 2 or more numbers works very well. However, the process in the algorithm is the same as the dividing one number by another and using the remainder. For this we can substitute the modulus function (%). a mod b is the remainder of a divided by b. We also move the initialization of $a and $b to the inside of the for-loop only.

Any non zero whole number times 0 equals 0 so it is true that every non zero whole number is a factor of 0.

GCF(5,0) = 5 and more generally GCF(k,0) = k for any whole number k.

From the example above, it can be seen that GCF(268442, 178296) = 2. If more integers were present, the same process would be performed to find the GCF of the subsequent integer and the GCF of the previous two integers. Referring to the previous example, if instead the desired value were GCF(268442, 178296, 66888), after having found that GCF(268442, 178296) is 2, the next step would be to calculate GCF(66888, 2). In this particular case, it is clear that the GCF would also be 2, yielding the result of GCF(268442, 178296, 66888) = 2.

How to Find the GCF Using Euclid’s Algorithm

The prime factorization of 20 is 2 x 2 x 5 = 20. The prime factorization of 50 is 2 x 5 x 5 = 50. The prime factorization of 120 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 120. The occurrences of common prime factors of 20, 50 and 120 are 2 and 5. So the greatest common factor of 20, 50 and 120 is 2 x 5 = 10.

GCF of 2 or more numbers. Of course you will need to handle incorrect user inputs such as 0, negative values or only one value if you are setting up your own calculator but this is the core script.

First we find the GCF (182664, 154875) 182664 — (154875 * 1) = 27789 154875 — (27789 * 5) = 15930 27789 — (15930 * 1) = 11859 15930 — (11859 * 1) = 4071 11859 — (4071 * 2) = 3717 4071 — (3717 * 1) = 354 3717 — (354 * 10) = 177 354 — (177 * 2) = 0 So, the the greatest common factor of 182664 and 154875 is 177. Now we find the GCF (177, 137688) 137688 — (177 * 777) = 159 177 — (159 * 1) = 18 159 — (18 * 8) = 15 18 — (15 * 1) = 3 15 — (3 * 5) = 0 So, the greatest common factor of 177 and 137688 is 3. Therefore, the greatest common factor of 182664, 154875 and 137688 is 3.

Then the greatest common factor is 4.

For example, 5 × 0 = 0 so it is true that 0 ÷ 5 = 0. In this example, 5 and 0 are factors of 0.

A third viable method for finding the LCM of some given integers is using the greatest common divisor. This is also frequently referred to as the greatest common factor (GCF), among other names. Refer to the link for details on how to determine the greatest common divisor. Given LCM(a, b), the procedure for finding the LCM using GCF is to divide the product of the numbers a and b by their GCF, i.e. (a × b)/GCF(a,b). When trying to determine the LCM of more than two numbers, for example LCM(a, b, c) find the LCM of a and b where the result will be q. Then find the LCM of c and q. The result will be the LCM of all three numbers. Using the previous example:

Prime factorization is only efficient for smaller integer values. Larger values would make the prime factorization of each and the determination of the common factors, far more tedious.

Example: Find the GCF of 20, 50 and 120

However, GCF(0, 0) is undefined.

Another method used to determine the GCF involves using the Euclidean algorithm. This method is a far more efficient method than the use of prime factorization. The Euclidean algorithm uses a division algorithm combined with the observation that the GCD of two integers can also divide their difference. The algorithm is as follows:

As can be seen, this method can be fairly tedious, and is far from ideal.

To find the GCF by prime factorization, list out all of the prime factors of each number or find them with a Prime Factors Calculator. List the prime factors that are common to each of the original numbers. Include the highest number of occurrences of each prime factor that is common to each original number. Multiply these together to get the GCF .

The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20. The factors of 50 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50. The factors of 120 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 120. The common factors of 20, 50 and 120 are 1, 2, 5 and 10. (Include only the factors common to all three numbers.) The greatest common factor of 20, 50 and 120 is 10.

To find the GCF by factoring, list out all of the factors of each number or find them with a Factors Calculator. The whole number factors are numbers that divide evenly into the number with zero remainder. Given the list of common factors for each number, the GCF is the largest number common to each list.

The prime factorization of 18 is 2 x 3 x 3 = 18. The prime factorization of 27 is 3 x 3 x 3 = 27. The occurrences of common prime factors of 18 and 27 are 3 and 3. So the greatest common factor of 18 and 27 is 3 x 3 = 9.

Example: Find the GCF of 18 and 27

The factors of 20 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20

In mathematics, the greatest common factor (GCF), also known as the greatest common divisor, of two (or more) non-zero integers a and b, is the largest positive integer by which both integers can be divided. It is commonly denoted as GCF(a, b). For example, GCF(32, 256) = 32.

There are multiple ways to find a least common multiple. The most basic is simply using a «brute force» method that lists out each integer’s multiples.

The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18. The factors of 27 are 1, 3, 9, 27. The common factors of 18 and 27 are 1, 3 and 9. The greatest common factor of 18 and 27 is 9.

There are several ways to find the greatest common factor of numbers. The most efficient method you use depends on how many numbers you have, how large they are and what you will do with the result.

k × 0 = 0 so, 0 ÷ k = 0 for any whole number k.

What do you do if you want to find the GCF of more than two very large numbers such as 182664, 154875 and 137688? It’s easy if you have a Factoring Calculator or a Prime Factorization Calculator or even the GCF calculator shown above. But if you need to do the factorization by hand it will be a lot of work.

You will see that as numbers get larger the prime factorization method may be easier than straight factoring.

The greatest common factor (GCF or GCD or HCF) of a set of whole numbers is the largest positive integer that divides evenly into all numbers with zero remainder. For example, for the set of numbers 18, 30 and 42 the GCF = 6.

27 — 18 = 9 18 — 9 — 9 = 0 So, the greatest common factor of 18 and 27 is 9, the smallest result we had before we reached 0.

Prime Factorization

A more systematic way to find the LCM of some given integers is to use prime factorization. Prime factorization involves breaking down each of the numbers being compared into its product of prime numbers. The LCM is then determined by multiplying the highest power of each prime number together. Note that computing the LCM this way, while more efficient than using the «brute force» method, is still limited to smaller numbers. Refer to the example below for clarification on how to use prime factorization to determine the LCM:

The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

Note that it is not important which LCM is calculated first as long as all the numbers are used, and the method is followed accurately. Depending on the particular situation, each method has its own merits, and the user can decide which method to pursue at their own discretion.

In mathematics, the least common multiple, also known as the lowest common multiple of two (or more) integers a and b, is the smallest positive integer that is divisible by both. It is commonly denoted as LCM(a, b).

Note that the GCF (x,y,z) = GCF ( GCF (x,y),z). In other words, the GCF of 3 or more numbers can be found by finding the GCF of 2 numbers and using the result along with the next number to find the GCF and so on. Let’s get the GCF (120,50) first 120 — 50 — 50 = 120 — (50 * 2) = 20 50 — 20 — 20 = 50 — (20 * 2) = 10 20 — 10 — 10 = 20 — (10 * 2) = 0 So, the greatest common factor of 120 and 50 is 10. Now let’s find the GCF of our third value, 20, and our result, 10. GCF (20,10) 20 — 10 — 10 = 20 — (10 * 2) = 0 So, the greatest common factor of 20 and 10 is 10. Therefore, the greatest common factor of 120, 50 and 20 is 10.
