Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 36, 41, 42 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 36, 41, 42 is 1
GCD(36, 41, 42) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 36, 41, 42 is 1
GCD(36, 41, 42) = 1
Given Input numbers are 36, 41, 42
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 36
List of positive integer divisors of 36 that divides 36 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
Divisors of 41
List of positive integer divisors of 41 that divides 41 without a remainder.
1, 41
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 36, 41, 42 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 36, 41, 42 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 36, 41, 42 is 1
Given Input Data is 36, 41, 42
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 36 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 41 is 41
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(36, 41) = 1476
GCD(36, 41) = ( 36 x 41 ) / 1476
GCD(36, 41) = 1476 / 1476
GCD(36, 41) = 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 36, 41, 42 is 1
