Use the Euclidean algorithm to hand-calculate the greatest common divisor for the integers given below.
1,836 and 595
Step 1: Find q1 and r1 so that
1,836 = 595 · q1 + r1, where 0 ≤ r1 < 595.
Then Your answer cannot be understood or graded. More Information = 1,836 − 595 · q1.
Step 2: Find q2 and r2 so that
595 = r1 · q2 + r2, where 0 ≤ r2 < r1.
Then
= 595 −
· q2.
Step 3: Find q3 and r3 so that
r1 = r2 · q3 + r3, where 0 ≤ r3 < r2.
Then
= −
· q3.
Step 4: Find q4 and r4 so that
r2 = r3 · q4 + r4, where 0 ≤ r4 < r3.
Then
= −
· q4.
Step 5: Conclude that gcd(1,836, 595) = .
