Divide 16 by 1, 2 and 4.
1,2,4,8,16
Divide by two. 16 8,2 4,2,2 2,2,2,2
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 4.
The GCF is 1.
Two or more numbers are required to find the greatest common factor between them.
The least common factor of any set of integers is 1.
The GCF is 4.
8 2*8 = 16 5*8 = 40
Since 8 is a factor of 16, it is automatically the GCF. That factors to 8(a - 2)
16 8,2 4,2,2 2,2,2,2
Use a factor tree. 16 8,2 4,2,2 2,2,2,2
To find the highest common factor (HCF) of 16 and 24, we first list the factors of each number. The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16. The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24. The highest common factor is the largest number that both lists share, which is 8. Therefore, the HCF of 16 and 24 is 8.
