Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 46, 20, 38 i.e. 2 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 46, 20, 38 is 2
GCD(46, 20, 38) = 2
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 46, 20, 38 is 2
GCD(46, 20, 38) = 2
Given Input numbers are 46, 20, 38
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 46
List of positive integer divisors of 46 that divides 46 without a remainder.
1, 2, 23, 46
Divisors of 20
List of positive integer divisors of 20 that divides 20 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
Divisors of 38
List of positive integer divisors of 38 that divides 38 without a remainder.
1, 2, 19, 38
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 46, 20, 38 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 46, 20, 38 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 46, 20, 38 is 2
Given Input Data is 46, 20, 38
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 46 is 2 x 23
Prime Factorization of 20 is 2 x 2 x 5
Prime Factorization of 38 is 2 x 19
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 21
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 2
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(46, 20) = 460
GCD(46, 20) = ( 46 x 20 ) / 460
GCD(46, 20) = 920 / 460
GCD(46, 20) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 38
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 38) = 38
GCD(2, 38) = ( 2 x 38 ) / 38
GCD(2, 38) = 76 / 38
GCD(2, 38) = 2
GCD of 46, 20, 38 is 2
