Step 1 :
Divide $ 15210 $ by $ 10210 $ and get the remainder

$$ 15210 : 10210 = 1 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 5000 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is positive ($ 5000 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 2 :
Divide $ 10210 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 5000 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 10210 : 5000 = 2 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 210 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is still positive ($ 210 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 3 :
Divide $ 5000 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 210 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 5000 : 210 = 23 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 170 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is still positive ($ 170 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 4 :
Divide $ 210 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 170 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 210 : 170 = 1 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 40 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is still positive ($ 40 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 5 :
Divide $ 170 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 40 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 170 : 40 = 4 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 10 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is still positive ($ 10 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 6 :
Divide $ 40 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 10 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 40 : \color{blue}{ \boxed { 10 }} = 4 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 0 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is zero => GCD is the last divisor $ \color{blue}{ \boxed { 10 }} $.

This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.

The GCD equals the product of the numbers at the intersection.
