In an integral domain D, if d1=gcd(a,b), then d2=gcd(a,b) if and only if d1 and d2 are associates.
Attempt: Since d1=gcd(a,b) then d1|a and d1|b which implies that a=d1c and b=d2e for c,e∈D. Likewise, if d2=gcd(a,b), then d2|a and d2|b which implies that a=d1x and b=d2y for x,y∈D.
And from this, I don't know any trick to show that d1=ud2 where u is a unit.
Any suggestions?
