Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 49, 42, 56 i.e. 7 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 49, 42, 56 is 7
GCD(49, 42, 56) = 7
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 49, 42, 56 is 7
GCD(49, 42, 56) = 7
Given Input numbers are 49, 42, 56
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 49
List of positive integer divisors of 49 that divides 49 without a remainder.
1, 7, 49
Divisors of 42
List of positive integer divisors of 42 that divides 42 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42
Divisors of 56
List of positive integer divisors of 56 that divides 56 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 49, 42, 56 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 49, 42, 56 is 7.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 49, 42, 56 is 7
Given Input Data is 49, 42, 56
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 49 is 7 x 7
Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7
Prime Factorization of 56 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 71
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 7
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(49, 42) = 294
GCD(49, 42) = ( 49 x 42 ) / 294
GCD(49, 42) = 2058 / 294
GCD(49, 42) = 7
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 7 as first number and the next as 56
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(7, 56) = 56
GCD(7, 56) = ( 7 x 56 ) / 56
GCD(7, 56) = 392 / 56
GCD(7, 56) = 7
GCD of 49, 42, 56 is 7
