The Greatest Common Divisor of 54 and 74 is as follows:
2
To find the Greatest Common Divisor of 54 and 74, we first list all the divisors of 54
and all the divisors of 74. Then, we compare the two lists of divisors and pick the largest (greatest)
number that is on both lists, which will be the Greatest Common Divisor of 54 and 74.
Here is the list of 54 divisors: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54
And here is the list of 74 divisors: 1, 2, 37, 74
When we compare the two lists, we see that the greatest number they have in common is 2.
Therefore, once again, the answer to the question "What is the Greatest Common Divisor of 54 and 74?" is:
2
Note, the divisors of 54 are all the numbers you can divide into 54 with no remainder, and the divisors of 74 are
all the numbers you can divide into 74 with no remainder.
