Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 77, 40, 87, 42 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 77, 40, 87, 42 is 1
GCD(77, 40, 87, 42) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 77, 40, 87, 42 is 1
GCD(77, 40, 87, 42) = 1
Given Input numbers are 77, 40, 87, 42
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 77
List of positive integer divisors of 77 that divides 77 without a remainder.
1, 7, 11, 77
Divisors of 40
List of positive integer divisors of 40 that divides 40 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40
Divisors of 87
List of positive integer divisors of 87 that divides 87 without a remainder.
1, 3, 29, 87
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 77, 40, 87, 42 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 77, 40, 87, 42 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 77, 40, 87, 42 is 1
Given Input Data is 77, 40, 87, 42
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 77 is 7 x 11
Prime Factorization of 40 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5
Prime Factorization of 87 is 3 x 29
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(77, 40) = 3080
GCD(77, 40) = ( 77 x 40 ) / 3080
GCD(77, 40) = 3080 / 3080
GCD(77, 40) = 1
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 87
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 87) = 87
GCD(1, 87) = ( 1 x 87 ) / 87
GCD(1, 87) = 87 / 87
GCD(1, 87) = 1
Step3:
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 77, 40, 87, 42 is 1
