Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 257, 659, 16 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 257, 659, 16 is 1
GCD(257, 659, 16) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 257, 659, 16 is 1
GCD(257, 659, 16) = 1
Given Input numbers are 257, 659, 16
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number

Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 257, 659, 16 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 257, 659, 16 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 257, 659, 16 is 1
Given Input Data is 257, 659, 16
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 257 is 257
Prime Factorization of 659 is 659
Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
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(257, 659) = 169363
GCD(257, 659) = ( 257 x 659 ) / 169363
GCD(257, 659) = 169363 / 169363
GCD(257, 659) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 16
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 16) = 16
GCD(1, 16) = ( 1 x 16 ) / 16
GCD(1, 16) = 16 / 16
GCD(1, 16) = 1
GCD of 257, 659, 16 is 1
