Step 2 : Put a box around factors that are common for all numbers:

$$\begin{aligned}92610000 =& \color{blue}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{red}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{Fuchsia}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{Orange}{\boxed{2}}\cdot3\cdot3\cdot3\cdot\color{Purple}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{blue}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{red}{\boxed{5}}\cdot5\cdot\color{Fuchsia}{\boxed{7}}\cdot\color{Orange}{\boxed{7}}\cdot\color{Purple}{\boxed{7}}\\[8pt]1372000 =& \color{blue}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{red}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{Fuchsia}{\boxed{2}}\cdot\color{Orange}{\boxed{2}}\cdot2\cdot\color{Purple}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{blue}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{red}{\boxed{5}}\cdot\color{Fuchsia}{\boxed{7}}\cdot\color{Orange}{\boxed{7}}\cdot\color{Purple}{\boxed{7}}\\[8pt]\end{aligned}$$

Step 3 : Multiply the boxed numbers together:

$$ GCD = 2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot5\cdot5\cdot5\cdot7\cdot7\cdot7 = 686000 $$

This solution can be visualized using a Venn diagram.

The GCD equals the product of the numbers at the intersection.
