Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 16, 21, 36, 59 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 16, 21, 36, 59 is 1
GCD(16, 21, 36, 59) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 16, 21, 36, 59 is 1
GCD(16, 21, 36, 59) = 1
Given Input numbers are 16, 21, 36, 59
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 16

1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Divisors of 21
List of positive integer divisors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1, 3, 7, 21
Divisors of 36
List of positive integer divisors of 36 that divides 36 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
Divisors of 59
List of positive integer divisors of 59 that divides 59 without a remainder.
1, 59
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 16, 21, 36, 59 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 16, 21, 36, 59 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 16, 21, 36, 59 is 1
Given Input Data is 16, 21, 36, 59
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 21 is 3 x 7
Prime Factorization of 36 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 59 is 59
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, 21) = 336
GCD(16, 21) = ( 16 x 21 ) / 336
GCD(16, 21) = 336 / 336
GCD(16, 21) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 36
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 36) = 36
GCD(1, 36) = ( 1 x 36 ) / 36
GCD(1, 36) = 36 / 36
GCD(1, 36) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 59
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 59) = 59
GCD(1, 59) = ( 1 x 59 ) / 59
GCD(1, 59) = 59 / 59
GCD(1, 59) = 1
GCD of 16, 21, 36, 59 is 1
