The GCD of given numbers is 1.
Step 1 :
Divide $ 924 $ by $ 647 $ and get the remainder
The remainder is positive ($ 277 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.
Step 2 :
Divide $ 647 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 277 } $ and get the remainder
The remainder is still positive ($ 93 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.
Step 3 :
Divide $ 277 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 93 } $ and get the remainder
The remainder is still positive ($ 91 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.
Step 4 :
Divide $ 93 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 91 } $ and get the remainder
The remainder is still positive ($ 2 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.
Step 5 :
Divide $ 91 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 2 } $ and get the remainder
The remainder is still positive ($ 1 > 0 $), so we will continue with division.
Step 6 :
Divide $ 2 $ by $ \color{blue}{ 1 } $ and get the remainder
The remainder is zero => GCD is the last divisor $ \color{blue}{ \boxed { 1 }} $.
We can summarize an algorithm into a following table.
| 924 | : | 647 | = | 1 | remainder ( 277 ) | ||||||||||
| 647 | : | 277 | = | 2 | remainder ( 93 ) | ||||||||||
| 277 | : | 93 | = | 2 | remainder ( 91 ) | ||||||||||
| 93 | : | 91 | = | 1 | remainder ( 2 ) | ||||||||||
| 91 | : | 2 | = | 45 | remainder ( 1 ) | ||||||||||
| 2 | : | 1 | = | 2 | remainder ( 0 ) | ||||||||||
| GCD = 1 | |||||||||||||||
This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.
The GCD equals the product of the numbers at the intersection.
