Static method example

The euclidean algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor, can be used to find a number both left and right can be divided by.

The challenge is solving the follow problem:
Two plots of land with areas of 23,500 m² (square meters) and 14,100m² (square meters) are divided into lots, as large as possible, all in the same area. The total number of lots obtained, is:
Please implement this using static method. Remember a static method does not need an instance to be called
