The GCD Calculator allows users to input two numbers and calculates the greatest common divisor (GCD), least common multiple (LCM), and determines if the numbers are coprime.

Using the GCD Calculator
This guide will walk you through the process of using the GCD Calculator to find the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD), Least Common Multiple (LCM), and determine if two numbers are coprime.
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Step 1: Input the First Number
- Locate the field labeled First Number.
- Enter the first positive number of your choice in the input field. Ensure the number is at least 1 and a whole number, as decimals are not accepted.
-
Step 2: Input the Second Number
- Find the field labeled Second Number.
- Enter the second positive number in the input field. Again, ensure it is a whole number with the same validation as the first number.
-
Step 3: Calculate GCD, LCM, and Determine Coprimeness
- Once both numbers are entered, the calculator automatically computes the results.
- You will be provided with the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of the two numbers. This represents the largest number that can divide both inputs without leaving a remainder.
- The Least Common Multiple (LCM) will also be calculated. This refers to the smallest common multiple of both numbers.
- Additionally, the calculator checks whether the numbers are coprime, indicated under Are Numbers Coprime? A result of ‘Yes’ signifies the numbers have no common divisors other than 1, while ‘No’ implies otherwise.
By following these steps, you can smoothly and accurately perform calculations with the GCD Calculator.
