Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 68, 16, 48 i.e. 4 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 68, 16, 48 is 4
GCD(68, 16, 48) = 4
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 68, 16, 48 is 4
GCD(68, 16, 48) = 4
Given Input numbers are 68, 16, 48
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 68
List of positive integer divisors of 68 that divides 68 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 17, 34, 68
Divisors of 16
List of positive integer divisors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Divisors of 48
List of positive integer divisors of 48 that divides 48 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 68, 16, 48 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 68, 16, 48 is 4.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 68, 16, 48 is 4
Given Input Data is 68, 16, 48
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 68 is 2 x 2 x 17
Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
Prime Factorization of 48 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 22
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 4
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(68, 16) = 272
GCD(68, 16) = ( 68 x 16 ) / 272
GCD(68, 16) = 1088 / 272
GCD(68, 16) = 4
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 4 as first number and the next as 48
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(4, 48) = 48
GCD(4, 48) = ( 4 x 48 ) / 48
GCD(4, 48) = 192 / 48
GCD(4, 48) = 4
GCD of 68, 16, 48 is 4
