What is the first task in using the step approach to finding the greatest common divisor? A. Divide the numerator into the denominator. B. Divide the larger number into the smaller number. C. Use the observation method. D. Divide the remainder into the divisor.

We have to determine the first task in using the step approach to finding the greatest common divisor.

The greatest common divisor of two numbers, which are not all zero, is the largest positive integer that divides each of the integers.

The first task among the given steps is:

"Divide the larger number into the smaller number".
