Is it private and secure?

Your privacy is built in. GCD / LCM Calculator runs completely on your device, so whatever you enter stays in your browser and is never transmitted, logged or stored on any server.

Network activity: none. Nothing is sent and nothing is fetched. This tool makes no network request at all once the page has loaded — which is why it keeps working if your connection drops.

You do not have to take that on trust — our privacy proof page publishes the Content-Security-Policy that enforces it, lists every third party it permits, and shows how to verify the whole claim yourself.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between GCD and LCM?

The greatest common divisor is the largest number dividing both values; the lowest common multiple is the smallest number both divide into. For 12 and 18, the GCD is 6 and the LCM is 36.

How are GCD and LCM related?

By the identity GCD(a,b) times LCM(a,b) equals a times b. That is how LCM is normally computed in practice — find the GCD with the Euclidean algorithm, then divide the product by it, which avoids overflow from multiplying first.

How does the Euclidean algorithm work?

Repeatedly replace the larger number with the remainder of dividing it by the smaller, until the remainder is zero; the last non-zero value is the GCD. It is over two thousand years old and still the standard method.

What are they actually used for?

GCD reduces fractions to lowest terms and appears throughout cryptography, notably in RSA key generation. LCM finds common denominators and answers scheduling questions — two events recurring every 12 and 18 days coincide every 36.
