Not at all. For example: gcf(101, 102) = 1 gcf(40, 80) = 40
The LCM of two numbers will never be less than the GCF.
No. Although the greatest common denominator of a pair of numbers is infinite, the size of the numbers doesn't affect the GCF as much as the difference between them. The GCF of 100 and 102 is 2. The GCf of 33 and 66 is 33.
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.
The LCM will never be less than the GCF of a set of numbers.
Because there are many examples where that isn't so. The GCF of 36 and 24 is 12. The GCF of 151 and 149 is 1.
The GCF of 2 numbers can be less than either number.
If their GCF is 1, their LCM is their product. If their GCF is greater than 1, their LCM is less than their product.
Yes. 4 and 8 have a GCF of 4. 104 and 108 have a GCF of 4. Any set of prime numbers has a GCF of 1, no matter how large or small they are.
Yes. Simple example: pick 2 primes greater than 100 and 2 less than 100. For each pair, GCF = 1
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.
12, (any multiple of 12 less than 100), any multiple of 12 greater than 100) Example: 12, 24, and 108
