Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 71, 76, 42 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 71, 76, 42 is 1
GCD(71, 76, 42) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 71, 76, 42 is 1
GCD(71, 76, 42) = 1
Given Input numbers are 71, 76, 42
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 71
List of positive integer divisors of 71 that divides 71 without a remainder.
1, 71
Divisors of 76
List of positive integer divisors of 76 that divides 76 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 76
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 71, 76, 42 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 71, 76, 42 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 71, 76, 42 is 1
Given Input Data is 71, 76, 42
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 71 is 71
Prime Factorization of 76 is 2 x 2 x 19
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(71, 76) = 5396
GCD(71, 76) = ( 71 x 76 ) / 5396
GCD(71, 76) = 5396 / 5396
GCD(71, 76) = 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 71, 76, 42 is 1
