1, 3, 13, 39
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 420, 240, 39 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 420, 240, 39 is 3.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 420, 240, 39 is 3
Given Input Data is 420, 240, 39
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 420 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7
Prime Factorization of 240 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
Prime Factorization of 39 is 3 x 13
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 31
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 3
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(420, 240) = 1680
GCD(420, 240) = ( 420 x 240 ) / 1680
GCD(420, 240) = 100800 / 1680
GCD(420, 240) = 60
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 60 as first number and the next as 39
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(60, 39) = 780
GCD(60, 39) = ( 60 x 39 ) / 780
GCD(60, 39) = 2340 / 780
GCD(60, 39) = 3
GCD of 420, 240, 39 is 3
