GCD of 56, 40, 88 is 8
GCD(56, 40, 88) = 8
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 56, 40, 88 is 8
GCD(56, 40, 88) = 8
Given Input numbers are 56, 40, 88
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 56

1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
Divisors of 88
List of positive integer divisors of 88 that divides 88 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 56, 40, 88 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 56, 40, 88 is 8.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 56, 40, 88 is 8
Given Input Data is 56, 40, 88
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 40 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5
Prime Factorization of 88 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 23
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 8
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, 40) = 280
GCD(56, 40) = ( 56 x 40 ) / 280
GCD(56, 40) = 2240 / 280
GCD(56, 40) = 8
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 8 as first number and the next as 88
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(8, 88) = 88
GCD(8, 88) = ( 8 x 88 ) / 88
GCD(8, 88) = 704 / 88
GCD(8, 88) = 8
GCD of 56, 40, 88 is 8
