The Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 2 and 16 is the largest positive integer that divides both 2 and 16. Mathematically, the problem we are solving is:
GCD(2,16)
To solve the problem, we will list all the positive integers (divisors) that can be divided into 2 and 16. We will then compare the lists of divisors to find the greatest divisor they have in common.
Divisors of 2:
1 and 2.
Divisors of 16:
1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.
When we compare the lists of divisors above, we see that the largest number they have in common is 2. Thus, the Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 2 and 16 is:
GCD(2,16) = 2
