Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 59, 40, 78 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 59, 40, 78 is 1
GCD(59, 40, 78) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 59, 40, 78 is 1
GCD(59, 40, 78) = 1
Given Input numbers are 59, 40, 78
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 59
List of positive integer divisors of 59 that divides 59 without a remainder.
1, 59
Divisors of 40
List of positive integer divisors of 40 that divides 40 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
Divisors of 78
List of positive integer divisors of 78 that divides 78 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 26, 39, 78
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 59, 40, 78 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 59, 40, 78 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 59, 40, 78 is 1
Given Input Data is 59, 40, 78
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 59 is 59
Prime Factorization of 40 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5
Prime Factorization of 78 is 2 x 3 x 13
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(59, 40) = 2360
GCD(59, 40) = ( 59 x 40 ) / 2360
GCD(59, 40) = 2360 / 2360
GCD(59, 40) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 78
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 78) = 78
GCD(1, 78) = ( 1 x 78 ) / 78
GCD(1, 78) = 78 / 78
GCD(1, 78) = 1
GCD of 59, 40, 78 is 1
