Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 88, 72, 17 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 88, 72, 17 is 1
GCD(88, 72, 17) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 88, 72, 17 is 1
GCD(88, 72, 17) = 1
Given Input numbers are 88, 72, 17
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number
Divisors of 88
List of positive integer divisors of 88 that divides 88 without a remainder.
1, 2, 4, 8, 11, 22, 44, 88
Divisors of 72
List of positive integer divisors of 72 that divides 72 without a remainder.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Divisors of 17
List of positive integer divisors of 17 that divides 17 without a remainder.
1, 17
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 88, 72, 17 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 88, 72, 17 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 88, 72, 17 is 1
Given Input Data is 88, 72, 17
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 88 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 11
Prime Factorization of 72 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Prime Factorization of 17 is 17
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(88, 72) = 792
GCD(88, 72) = ( 88 x 72 ) / 792
GCD(88, 72) = 6336 / 792
GCD(88, 72) = 8
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 8 as first number and the next as 17
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(8, 17) = 136
GCD(8, 17) = ( 8 x 17 ) / 136
GCD(8, 17) = 136 / 136
GCD(8, 17) = 1
GCD of 88, 72, 17 is 1
