Step 1 :
Divide $ 19950 $ by $ 14950 $ and get the remainder

$$ 19950 : 14950 = 1 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 5000 } \text{ ) } $$

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

Step 2 :
Divide $ 14950 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 5000 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 14950 : 5000 = 2 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 4950 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is still positive ($ 4950 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 3 :
Divide $ 5000 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 4950 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 5000 : 4950 = 1 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 50 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is still positive ($ 50 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.

Step 4 :
Divide $ 4950 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 50 } $ and get the remainder

$$ 4950 : \color{blue}{ \boxed { 50 }} = 99 \text{ ( remainder is } \color{blue}{ 0 } \text{ ) } $$

The remainder is zero => GCD is the last divisor $ \color{blue}{ \boxed { 50 }} $.

This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.

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