Answer:
/* here is code in java to find greatest common
divisor with Euclidean algorithm */
import java.util.*;
// class definition
class Main
{
// recursive method to find gcd
public static int Euclidean(int nm1, int nm2)
{
// base case
if (nm1 == 0)
return nm2;
// recursive call
return Euclidean(nm2 % nm1, nm1);
}
// driver method
public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception
{
try{
// scanner object to read input
Scanner scr=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("enter first number:");
// read first number
int n1=scr.nextInt();
System.out.print("enter second number:");
//read second number
int n2=scr.nextInt();
// call the method and print the gcd
System.out.println("greatest common factor of both number is: "+Euclidean(n1,n2));
}catch(Exception ex){
return;}
}
}
Explanation:
Read two number from user with scanner object and assign them to variables "n1" & "n2". Call the method Euclidean() with parameter "nm1"& "nm2".According to Euclidean algorithm, if we subtract smaller number from the larger one the gcd will not change.Keep subtracting the smaller one then we find the gcd of both the numbers.So the function Euclidean() will return the gcd of both the numbers.
Output:
enter first number:12
enter second number:39
greatest common factor of both number is: 3
