Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 11, 18, 72 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 11, 18, 72 is 1
GCD(11, 18, 72) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 11, 18, 72 is 1
GCD(11, 18, 72) = 1
Given Input numbers are 11, 18, 72
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 11
List of positive integer divisors of 11 that divides 11 without a remainder.
1, 11
Divisors of 18
List of positive integer divisors of 18 that divides 18 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
Divisors of 72
List of positive integer divisors of 72 that divides 72 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 11, 18, 72 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 11, 18, 72 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 11, 18, 72 is 1
Given Input Data is 11, 18, 72
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 11 is 11
Prime Factorization of 18 is 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 72 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
The above numbers do not have any common prime factor. So GCD is 1
Step1:
Let's calculate the GCD of first two numbers
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(11, 18) = 198
GCD(11, 18) = ( 11 x 18 ) / 198
GCD(11, 18) = 198 / 198
GCD(11, 18) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 72
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 72) = 72
GCD(1, 72) = ( 1 x 72 ) / 72
GCD(1, 72) = 72 / 72
GCD(1, 72) = 1
GCD of 11, 18, 72 is 1
