Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 20, 16, 23, 38 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 20, 16, 23, 38 is 1
GCD(20, 16, 23, 38) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 20, 16, 23, 38 is 1
GCD(20, 16, 23, 38) = 1
Given Input numbers are 20, 16, 23, 38
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 20
List of positive integer divisors of 20 that divides 20 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
Divisors of 16
List of positive integer divisors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Divisors of 23
List of positive integer divisors of 23 that divides 23 without a remainder.
1, 23
Divisors of 38
List of positive integer divisors of 38 that divides 38 without a remainder.
1, 2, 19, 38
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 20, 16, 23, 38 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 20, 16, 23, 38 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 20, 16, 23, 38 is 1
Given Input Data is 20, 16, 23, 38
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 20 is 2 x 2 x 5
Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
Prime Factorization of 23 is 23
Prime Factorization of 38 is 2 x 19
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(20, 16) = 80
GCD(20, 16) = ( 20 x 16 ) / 80
GCD(20, 16) = 320 / 80
GCD(20, 16) = 4
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 4 as first number and the next as 23
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(4, 23) = 92
GCD(4, 23) = ( 4 x 23 ) / 92
GCD(4, 23) = 92 / 92
GCD(4, 23) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 38
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 38) = 38
GCD(1, 38) = ( 1 x 38 ) / 38
GCD(1, 38) = 38 / 38
GCD(1, 38) = 1
GCD of 20, 16, 23, 38 is 1
