Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 56, 28, 52, 21 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 56, 28, 52, 21 is 1
GCD(56, 28, 52, 21) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 56, 28, 52, 21 is 1
GCD(56, 28, 52, 21) = 1
Given Input numbers are 56, 28, 52, 21
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number

1, 2, 4, 7, 14, 28
Divisors of 52
List of positive integer divisors of 52 that divides 52 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52
Divisors of 21
List of positive integer divisors of 21 that divides 21 without a remainder.
1, 3, 7, 21
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 56, 28, 52, 21 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 56, 28, 52, 21 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 56, 28, 52, 21 is 1
Given Input Data is 56, 28, 52, 21
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 56 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 7
Prime Factorization of 28 is 2 x 2 x 7
Prime Factorization of 52 is 2 x 2 x 13
Prime Factorization of 21 is 3 x 7
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(56, 28) = 56
GCD(56, 28) = ( 56 x 28 ) / 56
GCD(56, 28) = 1568 / 56
GCD(56, 28) = 28
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 28 as first number and the next as 52
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(28, 52) = 364
GCD(28, 52) = ( 28 x 52 ) / 364
GCD(28, 52) = 1456 / 364
GCD(28, 52) = 4
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 4 as first number and the next as 21
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(4, 21) = 84
GCD(4, 21) = ( 4 x 21 ) / 84
GCD(4, 21) = 84 / 84
GCD(4, 21) = 1
GCD of 56, 28, 52, 21 is 1
