1, 3, 53, 159
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 742, 944, 159 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 742, 944, 159 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 742, 944, 159 is 1
Given Input Data is 742, 944, 159
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 944 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 59
Prime Factorization of 159 is 3 x 53
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, 944) = 350224
GCD(742, 944) = ( 742 x 944 ) / 350224
GCD(742, 944) = 700448 / 350224
GCD(742, 944) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 159
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 159) = 318
GCD(2, 159) = ( 2 x 159 ) / 318
GCD(2, 159) = 318 / 318
GCD(2, 159) = 1
GCD of 742, 944, 159 is 1
