GCD of 21, 31, 42 Calculator

Given Input numbers are 21, 31, 42

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

Divisors of 21

List of positive integer divisors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.

1, 3, 7, 21

Divisors of 31

List of positive integer divisors of 31 that divides 31 without a remainder.

1, 31

Divisors of 42

List of positive integer divisors of 42 that divides 42 without a remainder.

1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42

Greatest Common Divisior

We found the divisors of 21, 31, 42 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 21, 31, 42 is 1.

Therefore, GCD of numbers 21, 31, 42 is 1

Given Input Data is 21, 31, 42

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

Prime Factorization of 21 is 3 x 7

Prime Factorization of 31 is 31

Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7

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(21, 31) = 651

GCD(21, 31) = ( 21 x 31 ) / 651

GCD(21, 31) = 651 / 651

GCD(21, 31) = 1

Step2:

Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 42

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

LCM(1, 42) = 42

GCD(1, 42) = ( 1 x 42 ) / 42

GCD(1, 42) = 42 / 42

GCD(1, 42) = 1

GCD of 21, 31, 42 is 1
