Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 438, 279, 16 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 438, 279, 16 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 438, 279, 16 is 1
Given Input Data is 438, 279, 16
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 438 is 2 x 3 x 73
Prime Factorization of 279 is 3 x 3 x 31
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(438, 279) = 40734
GCD(438, 279) = ( 438 x 279 ) / 40734
GCD(438, 279) = 122202 / 40734
GCD(438, 279) = 3
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 3 as first number and the next as 16
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(3, 16) = 48
GCD(3, 16) = ( 3 x 16 ) / 48
GCD(3, 16) = 48 / 48
GCD(3, 16) = 1
GCD of 438, 279, 16 is 1
