Solution

The question in the image asks to "Найдите НОД чисел 728 и 1275," which translates to "Find the GCD (greatest common divisor) of the numbers 728 and 1275."

Step-by-step solution:

We can calculate the GCD using the Euclidean algorithm, which involves repeated division to find the greatest common divisor.

  1. Step 1: Divide the larger number by the smaller number and take the remainder. 1275÷728=1remainder 1275(728×1)=5471275 \div 728 = 1 \quad \text{remainder } 1275 - (728 \times 1) = 547

  2. Step 2: Replace the larger number with the smaller number (728) and the smaller number with the remainder (547). Then repeat the division: 728÷547=1remainder 728(547×1)=181728 \div 547 = 1 \quad \text{remainder } 728 - (547 \times 1) = 181

  3. Step 3: Replace the numbers again. Divide 547 by 181: 547÷181=3remainder 547(181×3)=4547 \div 181 = 3 \quad \text{remainder } 547 - (181 \times 3) = 4

  4. Step 4: Divide 181 by 4: 181÷4=45remainder 181(4×45)=1181 \div 4 = 45 \quad \text{remainder } 181 - (4 \times 45) = 1

  5. Step 5: Divide 4 by 1: 4÷1=4remainder 04 \div 1 = 4 \quad \text{remainder } 0

When the remainder becomes 0, the divisor at this step (1) is the GCD.

Final Answer:

The greatest common divisor (GCD) of 728 and 1275 is 1.
