Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 78, 51, 16 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 78, 51, 16 is 1
GCD(78, 51, 16) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 78, 51, 16 is 1
GCD(78, 51, 16) = 1
Given Input numbers are 78, 51, 16
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 78
List of positive integer divisors of 78 that divides 78 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 26, 39, 78
Divisors of 51
List of positive integer divisors of 51 that divides 51 without a remainder.
1, 3, 17, 51
Divisors of 16
List of positive integer divisors of 16 that divides 16 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 16
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 78, 51, 16 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 78, 51, 16 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 78, 51, 16 is 1
Given Input Data is 78, 51, 16
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 78 is 2 x 3 x 13
Prime Factorization of 51 is 3 x 17
Prime Factorization of 16 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
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(78, 51) = 1326
GCD(78, 51) = ( 78 x 51 ) / 1326
GCD(78, 51) = 3978 / 1326
GCD(78, 51) = 3
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 3 as first number and the next as 16
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(3, 16) = 48
GCD(3, 16) = ( 3 x 16 ) / 48
GCD(3, 16) = 48 / 48
GCD(3, 16) = 1
GCD of 78, 51, 16 is 1
