• DEFINITION 1 If a and b are integers with a≠0, we say that a divides b if there is an integer c such that b=ac. When a divides b we say that a is a factor of b and that b is a multiple of a. The notation a | b denotes that a divides b. We write a ł b when a does not divide b.

ex) 3 ł 7, 3|12

• More efficient method of finding the greatest common divisor

• Finding gcd(91, 287) - 287 = 91 · 3 + 14 - any divisor of 91 and 287 must also be a divisor of

287 - 91 · 3 = 14. Also, any divisor of 91 and 14 must also be a divisor of 287 = 91 · 3 + 14.

- Hence, the greatest common divisor of 91 and 287 is the same as the greatest common divisor of 91 and 14.

- This means that the problem of finding gcd(91, 287) has been reduced to the problem of finding gcd(91, 14).

- Next, divide 91 by 14 to obtain - 91 = 14 · 6 + 7 - Continue by dividing 14 by 7(gcd(91, 14) = gcd(14, 7)) - 14 = 7 · 2 - Because 7 divides 14, it follows that gcd(14, 7) = 7.

Furthermore, because gcd(287, 91) = gcd (91, 14) …, the original problem has been solved.

• LEMMA 1 Let a = bq + r, where a, b, q, and r are integers. Then gcd(a, b) = gcd(b, r).

• Proof: Suppose that d divides both a and b. Then d also divides a – bq = r (from Theorem 1 of section 3.4). Hence, any common divisor of a and b is also a common divisor of b and r.

Likewise, suppose that d divides both b and r. Then d also divides bq + r = a. Hence, any common divisor of b and r is also a common divisor of a and b. => gcd(a, b) = gcd(b, r)
