Can the gcf of 16 be less than 16 explain?
There is no GCF of 16. You need at least two numbers to find a GCF. The GCF of something and 16 could possibly be less than 16.
Can the gcf of 16 and 42 be less 16 explain why?
Since 16 is not a factor of 42, the GCF in this case has to be less than 16.
Can the gcf of 16 and 42 be less than 16. explain.?
It can and it is. 16 is not a factor of 42 so the GCF of 16 and 42 must be less than 16.
Can the GCF of 16 and 42 be less than 16 Explain?
yes... 16 is not a factor of 42 GCF is 2
Can the greatest common factor of 16 and 40 to be less than 16 explain?
Since 16 is not a factor of 40, the GCF must be less than 16.
Can the gcf of 16 and 42 be than less 16 explain?
It must be less than or equal to the smallest of the set of numbers whose GCF you are trying to obtain. So it must be less than or equal to 16. Furthermore, it is not 16 because 16 is not a factor of 42. Therefore, it must be less than 16.
Can the GCF of 2 numbers be less than the first number?
The GCF of 2 numbers can be less than either number.
What is the GCF of 35a and 85ab?
- If 'a' is less than '1', then '5' is the gcf. - If 'a' is more than '1', then '5a' is the gcf.
Can the GCF be larger than the smallest coefficient?
No. The GCF can be less than or equal to the smallest coefficient.
Is the GCF of 2 different numbers greater than the LCM of the numbers?
No.The gcf of two numbers is LESS THAN OR EQUAL than their lcm.The gcf of two DIFFERENT numbes is LESS THAN their lcm.
Can the GCF ever be less than both of the numbers?
Yes, GCF means Greatest Common Factor For example the GCF of 15 and 18 is 3 which is less than both 15 and 18.
What is greater LCM or GCF?
The LCM of two numbers will never be less than the GCF.
