Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 31, 38, 16 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 31, 38, 16 is 1
GCD(31, 38, 16) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 31, 38, 16 is 1
GCD(31, 38, 16) = 1
Given Input numbers are 31, 38, 16
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 31
List of positive integer divisors of 31 that divides 31 without a remainder.
1, 31
Divisors of 38
List of positive integer divisors of 38 that divides 38 without a remainder.
1, 2, 19, 38
Divisors of 16
List of positive integer divisors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 31, 38, 16 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 31, 38, 16 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 31, 38, 16 is 1
Given Input Data is 31, 38, 16
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 31 is 31
Prime Factorization of 38 is 2 x 19
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(31, 38) = 1178
GCD(31, 38) = ( 31 x 38 ) / 1178
GCD(31, 38) = 1178 / 1178
GCD(31, 38) = 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 31, 38, 16 is 1
