Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 62, 26, 72 i.e. 2 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 62, 26, 72 is 2
GCD(62, 26, 72) = 2
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 62, 26, 72 is 2
GCD(62, 26, 72) = 2
Given Input numbers are 62, 26, 72
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 62
List of positive integer divisors of 62 that divides 62 without a remainder.
1, 2, 31, 62
Divisors of 26
List of positive integer divisors of 26 that divides 26 without a remainder.
1, 2, 13, 26
Divisors of 72
List of positive integer divisors of 72 that divides 72 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 62, 26, 72 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 62, 26, 72 is 2.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 62, 26, 72 is 2
Given Input Data is 62, 26, 72
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 62 is 2 x 31
Prime Factorization of 26 is 2 x 13
Prime Factorization of 72 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 21
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 2
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(62, 26) = 806
GCD(62, 26) = ( 62 x 26 ) / 806
GCD(62, 26) = 1612 / 806
GCD(62, 26) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 72
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 72) = 72
GCD(2, 72) = ( 2 x 72 ) / 72
GCD(2, 72) = 144 / 72
GCD(2, 72) = 2
GCD of 62, 26, 72 is 2
