Original question and givens

Use natural gcd with a=119, b=72. Give (a, b, ordered Euclid rows [x,y,x mod y] while y≠0, final gcd). Adopt gcd(0,0)=0.

  • G001 — Use natural gcd with a=119, b=72. Give (a, b, ordered Euclid rows [x,y,x mod y] while y≠0, final gcd). Adopt gcd(0,0)=0.

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [qf-ext18-gcd-euclid-trace, Nat_gcd, gcd-euclid-trace, no-form-field]

After

derived = [[a, b, ordered_Euclid_rows, gcd]]

Conditions: none

Check THIS bank interface:BASE equations use form/domain;BASE events/complement have no operation;factorials have no domain.ext18 uses local hyphens,other legacy operations underscores.Do not force every answer into a tuple or fraction.
