When one factor is even and the other factor is odd the product is always what?
even
Is gcf of an odd number and an even number always even?
It is NEVER even. Because no even number can be a factor of the odd number.
Is the gcf of an odd number and an even number is always even?
It CAN'T be even, since the number 2 is not a factor of the odd number. "Even" means that a number is a multiple of 2.
Is the greatest common factor of two even numbers always even?
Assuming the second even number is equal to 4 or greater, than the highest common factor of the two numbers is equal to an even number 2 or greater. Why can't an odd factor be used? Any odd factor must be multiplied by (at least) 2 to create an even product (ie. the 1st even number). That same odd factor must be multiplied by (at least 2) and any other number to create a 2nd even product, thereby making the Greatest Common Factor (at least) 2 times the odd number....which is an even number.
How are odd and even numbers are related to their factors?
Even numbers must have 2 amongst their factors; they may have other even numbers amongst their factors. Odd numbers must not; every factor of an odd number must be odd.
Can an odd product ever have an even factor?
No.
How are odd and even products related to their factors?
2 cannot be a factor of an odd number, 2 must be a factor of an even number.
Can the greatest common factor of an odd and an even number ever be even?
No. Odd numbers don't have even factors.
Is 32 a even factor or odd factor?
Even
What is a odd factor?
An odd factor is a number that cannot be divided by 2. if it can be divided by 2 it is an even factor or even number.
Is the greatest common factor an odd number and even number is always even?
No. Odd numbers only have odd factors. They could not have an even factor in common.
What are the numbers that have an odd factor?
Every integer number has an odd factor unless it doesn't, i.e. unless it only has even factors. An even factor can have an odd factor, unless it has only factors 2 (since it is the only even prime).So, a number has an odd factor if it is unequal to a power of 2.Note that 0 is not a power of 2 and has all odd factors . . .
When one factor is even and the other factor is odd the product is always what?
even
Will the greatest common factor of an odd and even number always be even?
No, always odd.
Will an odd number ever have even numbers in its exponential form?
All even numbers have 2 as a factor, but no odd numbers do. The only even number that will appear as a factor in prime factorizations is 2, because it is the only even prime number. Thus, an odd number will not have even numbers in its prime factorization because an odd number is not evenly divisible by 2. The only even numbers that could appear in the exponential form are the exponents. For example 81 is 34. The factor is an odd number - 3, while the exponent is an even number - 4.
Can the greatest common factor of an odd and even number always even?
The GCF of an odd and an even number must be odd since odd numbers do not have any even factors.
Is the greater common factor of an odd number and an even number always even?
No, always odd.
