Yes as for example 6 is less than 12
12 and 24 12 and 36 24 and 36
24 and 36
The GCF of 18 and 30 is 6
No. All factors of a number are less than or equal to it. Therefore the highest factor of 12 is 12. The common factor of 12 with any other number (greater than) 12 cannot be greater than the highest factor of 12 which is 12. Thus no. [The hcf(12, 30) = 6.]
12 and 24 12 and 36 24 and 36
14
12 is a factor of all of them. Since 12 can't have a factor higher than 12, it must be the GCF.
12
12
48 and 36
Answer = 1Greatest common factor is largest number 37 or less they can both go into evenly.
6
