1, 17
Divisors of 979
List of positive integer divisors of 979 that divides 979 without a remainder.
1, 11, 89, 979
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 742, 136, 17, 979 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 742, 136, 17, 979 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 742, 136, 17, 979 is 1
Given Input Data is 742, 136, 17, 979
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 742 is 2 x 7 x 53
Prime Factorization of 136 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 17
Prime Factorization of 17 is 17
Prime Factorization of 979 is 11 x 89
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(742, 136) = 50456
GCD(742, 136) = ( 742 x 136 ) / 50456
GCD(742, 136) = 100912 / 50456
GCD(742, 136) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 17
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 17) = 34
GCD(2, 17) = ( 2 x 17 ) / 34
GCD(2, 17) = 34 / 34
GCD(2, 17) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 979
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 979) = 979
GCD(1, 979) = ( 1 x 979 ) / 979
GCD(1, 979) = 979 / 979
GCD(1, 979) = 1
GCD of 742, 136, 17, 979 is 1
