The answer is as follows:
The prime factorisation of the two number is:
18 = 2*3*324 = 2*2*2*3
The HCF is the product every number which appears in both lists (repeated appearances mean repeated inclusion in HCF):
HCF = 2*3 = 6
It is 6 because it is the highest number that will go into 18 and 24 leaving no remainders
Greatest Common Factor or Highest Common Factor (GCF or GCD or HCF) of 6 and 160 is 2.
Factor both numbers. Select the factors they both have in common. Choose the largest (greatest) one.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
You need at least two numbers to find something in common between them.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
Two or more numbers are needed to find their highest common factor.
16 = 2X2X2X2; 24 = 2X2X2X3; therefore, the highest common factor is 23 = 8

Greatest Common Factor or Highest Common Factor (GCF or GCD or HCF) of 6 and 160 is 2.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
Factor both numbers. Select the factors they both have in common. Choose the largest (greatest) one.
There is no highest COMMON factor of just one number. You need two numbers to find a GCF (Greatest Common Factor).
You need at least two numbers to find something in common.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
Find their highest common factor and you can find the answer. Answer: 1/19
to find a factor of a number you have to 1. find the hcf (highest common factor) 2. find how many times the hcf goes into your number AND THAT IS YOUR ANSWER!
