The answer will depends on what the factor puzzle is!
No odd whole numbers have 12 as a factor. 1 and 3 are odd numbers that are factors of 12.
All numbers with 12 as a factor have 2 as a factor, but not all have 10 as a factor.
It is for numbers that are multiples of 12, but not for other numbers.
the least common multiple is what the numbers you are using divide into. e.g. 3 and 6 have 12 as the common factor. the greatest common factor is what divides into your numbers. 6 and 9 have 3 as the greatest common factor
To solve the magic star puzzle, you need to place the numbers 1-12 in the circles on the star in a way that each line of three numbers adds up to the same sum. This sum is typically 26 in most magic star puzzles. By arranging the numbers strategically, you can ensure that every line on the star adds up to the magic sum.
4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22,24,26
Multiples of 12, like 12, 24 and 36.
Since 6 is a factor of 12, it is automatically the GCF.
The greatest common factor of the numbers 12 and 42 is 6.
1 and 3
Factors cannot be larger than the numbers they are compared to. 4 is a factor of 12. 12 is a multiple of 4.
2 is a common factor of 12 and 24 because it can evenly divide both numbers without any remainder. This is because 12 is equal to 2 multiplied by 6, and 24 is equal to 2 multiplied by 12. Since 2 is a factor of both 12 and 24, it is considered a common factor of the two numbers.
