Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 61, 16, 42 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 61, 16, 42 is 1
GCD(61, 16, 42) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 61, 16, 42 is 1
GCD(61, 16, 42) = 1
Given Input numbers are 61, 16, 42
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 61
List of positive integer divisors of 61 that divides 61 without a remainder.
1, 61
Divisors of 16
List of positive integer divisors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Divisors of 42
List of positive integer divisors of 42 that divides 42 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 61, 16, 42 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 61, 16, 42 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 61, 16, 42 is 1
Given Input Data is 61, 16, 42
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 61 is 61
Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 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(61, 16) = 976
GCD(61, 16) = ( 61 x 16 ) / 976
GCD(61, 16) = 976 / 976
GCD(61, 16) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 42
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 42) = 42
GCD(1, 42) = ( 1 x 42 ) / 42
GCD(1, 42) = 42 / 42
GCD(1, 42) = 1
GCD of 61, 16, 42 is 1
