Make use of GCD Calculator to determine the Greatest Common Divisor of 978, 130, 21, 159 i.e. 1 largest integer that divides all the numbers equally.
GCD of 978, 130, 21, 159 is 1
GCD(978, 130, 21, 159) = 1
Ex: 10, 15, 20 (or) 24, 48, 96,45 (or) 78902, 89765, 12345
GCD of numbers 978, 130, 21, 159 is 1
GCD(978, 130, 21, 159) = 1
Given Input numbers are 978, 130, 21, 159
To find the GCD of numbers using factoring list out all the divisors of each number

1, 3, 53, 159
Greatest Common Divisior
We found the divisors of 978, 130, 21, 159 . The biggest common divisior number is the GCD number.
So the Greatest Common Divisior 978, 130, 21, 159 is 1.
Therefore, GCD of numbers 978, 130, 21, 159 is 1
Given Input Data is 978, 130, 21, 159
Make a list of Prime Factors of all the given numbers initially
Prime Factorization of 978 is 2 x 3 x 163
Prime Factorization of 130 is 2 x 5 x 13
Prime Factorization of 21 is 3 x 7
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(978, 130) = 63570
GCD(978, 130) = ( 978 x 130 ) / 63570
GCD(978, 130) = 127140 / 63570
GCD(978, 130) = 2
Step2:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 2 as first number and the next as 21
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(2, 21) = 42
GCD(2, 21) = ( 2 x 21 ) / 42
GCD(2, 21) = 42 / 42
GCD(2, 21) = 1
Step3:
Here we consider the GCD from the above i.e. 1 as first number and the next as 159
The formula of GCD is GCD(a, b) = ( a x b) / LCM(a, b)
LCM(1, 159) = 159
GCD(1, 159) = ( 1 x 159 ) / 159
GCD(1, 159) = 159 / 159
GCD(1, 159) = 1
GCD of 978, 130, 21, 159 is 1
