What does the gcf of 2 or more numbers represent?
The largest number that will divide into all the members of a given set evenly with no remainder.
Is greater the LCM of the numbers or the numbers or the GCF of the numbers?
The LCM will never be less than the GCF of a set of numbers.
What 2 or more numbers for a gcf represent?
The GCF is the largest whole number that is a factor for both of the numbers of interest. GCF is useful when simplifying fractions.
Which is greater gcf or LCM?
The LCM of two numbers will never be less than the GCF.
What is the GCF of the set of numbers 72 and 8?
The GCF is 8.
What is the GCF of the set of numbers 20 and 90?
The GCF is 10.
What is the GCF of each set of numbers 11 44 12 21?
The GCF of that set is 1.
What is the greatest common factor of 18 20 and 26?
The GCF of 18, 20, and 26 is 2. The GCF of a set of numbers can't be any larger than the smallest difference between the numbers. The smallest difference within this set of numbers is 2. Since all of the numbers in the set are even, 2 is the greatest common factor.
Can two numbers be a GCF?
Any positive number can be a GCF. But for each separate set of numbers, there can only be one.
What are two numbers that have a gcf of 36 and the LCM 3?
This is an impossible set of numbers. If the LCM was 36, and the GCF was 3, then the numbers would be 6X6.
Is the GCF of any set of odd numbers always odd?
Any set of odd numbers, yes.
What are the two numbers if the gcf is 2?
There's a lot of possibilities. Any set of consecutive even numbers has a GCF of 2.
