Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 20, 18, 24 i.e. 2 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 20, 18, 24 is 2
GCD(20, 18, 24) = 2
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 20, 18, 24 is 2
GCD(20, 18, 24) = 2
Given Input numbers are 20, 18, 24
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 18
List of positive integer divisors of 18 that divides 18 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
Divisors of 24
List of positive integer divisors of 24 that divides 24 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 20, 18, 24 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 20, 18, 24 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 20, 18, 24 is 2
Given Input Data is 20, 18, 24
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 18 is 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 24 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 21
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 2
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, 18) = 180
GCD(20, 18) = ( 20 x 18 ) / 180
GCD(20, 18) = 360 / 180
GCD(20, 18) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 24
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 24) = 24
GCD(2, 24) = ( 2 x 24 ) / 24
GCD(2, 24) = 48 / 24
GCD(2, 24) = 2
GCD of 20, 18, 24 is 2
