You need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
12 6,2 3,2,2 42 21,2 7,3,2 2 x 3 = 6, the GCF
gcf(30, 42) = 6. 30 = 2 x 3 x 5 42 = 2 x 3 x 7 hcf = 2 x 3 = 6
The factor tree is just a way to display the prime factorization. Once you have that, you can find the GCF. Example: 30 and 42 2 x 3 x 5 = 30 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 Select the common factors. 2 x 3 = 6, the GCF.
Since 7 is a factor of 42, it is automatically the GCF.
The GCF is 42.
The greatest common factor of 6 and 42 is 6.6: 6,2,3,642: 1,2,3,6,7,14,21,42The GCF is: 6The GCF is 6.
The greatest common factor of 18 21 and 42 is 3.
Since 42 is a factor of 6048, it is automatically the GCF.
Since 21 is a factor of 42, it is automatically the GCF.
The GCF of 7, 42, and 70 is 7.The GCF is 7.
The GCF of 7, 21, and 42 is 7, because 7 is a factor of all three.
The GCF is 6.
