GCD of 16, 15, 12 Calculator

Given Input numbers are 16, 15, 12

To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number

Divisors of 16

List of positive integer divisors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.

1, 2, 4, 8, 16

Divisors of 15

List of positive integer divisors of 15 that divides 15 without a remainder.

1, 3, 5, 15

Divisors of 12

Greatest Common Divisior

We found the divisors of 16, 15, 12 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 16, 15, 12 is 1.

Therefore, GCD of numbers 16, 15, 12 is 1

Given Input Data is 16, 15, 12

Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially

Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

Prime Factorization of 15 is 3 x 5

Prime Factorization of 12 is 2 x 2 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(16, 15) = 240

GCD(16, 15) = ( 16 x 15 ) / 240

GCD(16, 15) = 240 / 240

GCD(16, 15) = 1

Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 12

The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)

LCM(1, 12) = 12

GCD(1, 12) = ( 1 x 12 ) / 12

GCD(1, 12) = 12 / 12

GCD(1, 12) = 1

GCD of 16, 15, 12 is 1
