Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 17, 76, 72 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 17, 76, 72 is 1
GCD(17, 76, 72) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 17, 76, 72 is 1
GCD(17, 76, 72) = 1
Given Input numbers are 17, 76, 72
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number

1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 76
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 17, 76, 72 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 17, 76, 72 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 17, 76, 72 is 1
Given Input Data is 17, 76, 72
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 17 is 17
Prime Factorization of 76 is 2 x 2 x 19
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(17, 76) = 1292
GCD(17, 76) = ( 17 x 76 ) / 1292
GCD(17, 76) = 1292 / 1292
GCD(17, 76) = 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 17, 76, 72 is 1
