Examples of Use of Euclidean Algorithm

GCD of $341$ and $527$

The GCD of $341$ and $527$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {341, 527} = 31$


GCD of $2190$ and $465$

The GCD of $2190$ and $465$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {2190, 465} = 15$

Hence $15$ can be expressed as an integer combination of $2190$ and $465$:

$15 = 33 \times 465 - 7 \times 2190$


GCD of $9 n + 8$ and $6 n + 5$

The GCD of $9 n + 8$ and $6 n + 5$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {9 n + 8, 6 n + 5} = 1$

Hence:

$2 \paren {9 n + 8} - 3 \paren {6 n + 5} = 1$


Solution of $31 x \equiv 1 \pmod {56}$

Let $x \in \Z$ be an integer such that:

$31 x \equiv 1 \pmod {56}$

Then by using the Euclidean Algorithm:

$x = -9$

is one such $x$.

The GCD of $24$ and $138$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {24, 138} = 6$


GCD of $34$ and $102$

The GCD of $34$ and $102$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {34, 102} = 34$


GCD of $52$ and $273$

The GCD of $52$ and $273$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {52, 273} = 13$


GCD of $56$ and $72$

The GCD of $56$ and $72$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {56, 72} = 8$


GCD of $108$ and $243$

The GCD of $108$ and $243$ is:

$\gcd \set {108, 243} = 27$


GCD of $119$ and $272$

The GCD of $119$ and $272$ is found to be:

GCD of $129$ and $301$

The GCD of $129$ and $301$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {129, 301} = 43$

Hence $43$ can be expressed as an integer combination of $129$ and $301$:

$43 = 1 \times 301 - 2 \times 129$


GCD of $132$ and $473$

The GCD of $132$ and $473$ is:

$\gcd \set {132, 473} = 11$


GCD of $143$ and $227$

The GCD of $143$ and $227$ is:

$\gcd \set {143, 227} = 1$


GCD of $156$ and $1740$

The GCD of $156$ and $1740$ is:

$\gcd \set {156, 1740} = 12$


GCD of $272$ and $1479$

The GCD of $272$ and $1479$ is:

$\gcd \set {272, 1479} = 17$


GCD of $299$ and $481$

The GCD of $299$ and $481$ is found to be:

$\gcd \set {299, 481} = 13$
