Question

Euclid algorithm to find gcd of two numbers in number theory

Answer 1

Explanation:

The Algorithm

The Euclidean Algorithm for finding GCD(A,B) is as follows: If A = 0 then GCD(A,B)=B, since the GCD(0,B)=B, and we can stop. If B = 0 then GCD(A,B)=A, since the GCD(A,0)=A, and we can stop. Write A in quotient remainder form (A = B⋅Q + R)
