Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 2 and 24




The Greatest Common Divisor (GCD) of 2 and 24 is the largest positive integer that divides both 2 and 24. Mathematically, the problem we are solving is:

GCD(2,24)

To solve the problem, we will list all the positive integers (divisors) that can be divided into 2 and 24. 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 24:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24.

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 24 is:

GCD(2,24) = 2
