The GCD of given numbers is 50.
Step 1 : Find prime factorization of each number.
$$\begin{aligned}350 =& 2\cdot5\cdot5\cdot7\\[8pt]5500 =& 2\cdot2\cdot5\cdot5\cdot5\cdot11\\[8pt]\end{aligned}$$(view steps on how to factor 350 and 5500. )
Step 2 : Put a box around factors that are common for all numbers:
$$\begin{aligned}350 =& \color{blue}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{red}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{Fuchsia}{\boxed{5}}\cdot7\\[8pt]5500 =& \color{blue}{\boxed{2}}\cdot2\cdot\color{red}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{Fuchsia}{\boxed{5}}\cdot5\cdot11\\[8pt]\end{aligned}$$Step 3 : Multiply the boxed numbers together:
$$ GCD = 2\cdot5\cdot5 = 50 $$This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.
The GCD equals the product of the numbers at the intersection.
