Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 38, 56, 17 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 38, 56, 17 is 1
GCD(38, 56, 17) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 38, 56, 17 is 1
GCD(38, 56, 17) = 1
Given Input numbers are 38, 56, 17
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 38
List of positive integer divisors of 38 that divides 38 without a remainder.
1, 2, 19, 38
Divisors of 56
List of positive integer divisors of 56 that divides 56 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56
Divisors of 17
List of positive integer divisors of 17 that divides 17 without a remainder.
1, 17
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 38, 56, 17 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 38, 56, 17 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 38, 56, 17 is 1
Given Input Data is 38, 56, 17
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 38 is 2 x 19
Prime Factorization of 56 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7
Prime Factorization of 17 is 17
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(38, 56) = 1064
GCD(38, 56) = ( 38 x 56 ) / 1064
GCD(38, 56) = 2128 / 1064
GCD(38, 56) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 17
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 17) = 34
GCD(2, 17) = ( 2 x 17 ) / 34
GCD(2, 17) = 34 / 34
GCD(2, 17) = 1
GCD of 38, 56, 17 is 1
