Answer 1

I would say you don't need another function.
Theoretically this should work:
gcd(1, gcd(2,3))

Answer 2

Sure :) You just need to convince yourself of the recursive step

gcd(ds(1..n)) = gcd(d(1), gcd(ds(2..n))

for a sequence of positive integers d(1), ..., d(n), where by ds(i..j) I mean d(i), ..., d(j).

This is a recursion over the length of the sequence. The base case being

gcd(d) = d

Answer 3

Use an array for all numbers.
Use a for loop.

Answer 4

Wonderful task to practise recursion :)

Answer 5

Yes, it would :)
