The greatest common divisor (gcd) of two or more integers, when at least one of them is not zero, is the largest positive integer that is a divisor of both numbers.

For example, the GCD of 8 and 12 is 4.

This is java program to find the gcd of given two numbers. GCD is calculated using Euclidean Algorithm.

  • Here is the source code of the Java Program to Find the GCD of 2 Numbers. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.

SOURCE CODE ::

import java.util.Scanner;

public class GCD {
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        
        int a,b,gcd,temp1,temp2;
        
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        
        System.out.println("Enter 1st No.");
        a=sc.nextInt();
        System.out.println("Enter 2nd No.");
        b=sc.nextInt();
        
        temp1=a;
        temp2=b;
        
                while(true)
                {
                    if(a>b)
                    {
                            if(a%b==0)
                            {
                                gcd=b;
                                break;
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                a=a%b;
                            }
                    }
                    else
                    {
                            if(b%a==0)
                            {
                                gcd=a;
                                break;
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                b=b%a;
                            }
                    }
                }
        
        System.out.println("GCD of "+ temp1 +" and "+ temp2 +" = "+ gcd);
    }
    
}

OUTPUT ::

Enter 1st No.
24
Enter 2nd No.
60
GCD of 24 and 60 = 12
