Prove $gcd(a,m) mid gcd(ab,m)$ $forall a,b,m in Bbb Z$
$begingroup$
I named $gcd(a,m) = d$ and $gcd(ab,m) = d' $
So I know that $dmid a$, $dmid m $ and $d'mid ab $ , $d' mid m$
But I can't use the transitive property of divisibility here.
How can I prove that $d mid d'$?

If $gmid a$ and $gmid m$, then $gmid ab$ and $gmid m$.

For each $xmid gcd(a,m)$, $xmid a,m$ so $xmid ab,m$ and $xmidgcd(ab,m)$.

For each $xmid gcd(a,m)$, $xmid a,m$ so $xmid ab,m$ and $xmidgcd(ab,m)$.
