Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 69, 36, 42 i.e. 3 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 69, 36, 42 is 3
GCD(69, 36, 42) = 3
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 69, 36, 42 is 3
GCD(69, 36, 42) = 3
Given Input numbers are 69, 36, 42
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 69
List of positive integer divisors of 69 that divides 69 without a remainder.
1, 3, 23, 69
Divisors of 36
List of positive integer divisors of 36 that divides 36 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36
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 69, 36, 42 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 69, 36, 42 is 3.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 69, 36, 42 is 3
Given Input Data is 69, 36, 42
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 69 is 3 x 23
Prime Factorization of 36 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7
Highest common occurrences in the given inputs are 31
Multiplying them we get the GCD as 3
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(69, 36) = 828
GCD(69, 36) = ( 69 x 36 ) / 828
GCD(69, 36) = 2484 / 828
GCD(69, 36) = 3
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 3 as first number and the next as 42
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(3, 42) = 42
GCD(3, 42) = ( 3 x 42 ) / 42
GCD(3, 42) = 126 / 42
GCD(3, 42) = 3
GCD of 69, 36, 42 is 3
