Yes, for example the trivial case in which the numbers are the same:
The GCF of 12 and 12 is 12.
This also occurs when one number is divisible by the other:
The GCF of 12 and 4 is 4.
The greatest common factor of 133 and 203 is 7
To find two numbers with a greatest common factor (GCF) of 9 and a least common multiple (LCM) of 54, we can use the relationship between GCF, LCM, and the product of two numbers. The product of two numbers is equal to the product of their GCF and LCM. So, if GCF is 9 and LCM is 54, the product of the two numbers is 9 * 54 = 486. To find the two numbers, we need to find a pair of factors whose product is 486 and whose GCF is 9. The numbers that meet these criteria are 27 and 18.
43
Well, isn't that just a happy little question! Let's find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 16, 28, and 48 together. We start by listing the factors of each number, then we look for the largest number that is a factor of all three. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, finding the GCF is all about patience and taking it one step at a time.
only if they are equal
No.
Yes, if one of the numbers is a factor of the other.
2 and 3
If one number is divisible by another (in this case, 15 is divisible by 5), then the least common multiple is equal to the larger of the numbers (15), and the greatest common factor is equal to the smaller of the numbers (5).If one number is divisible by another (in this case, 15 is divisible by 5), then the least common multiple is equal to the larger of the numbers (15), and the greatest common factor is equal to the smaller of the numbers (5).If one number is divisible by another (in this case, 15 is divisible by 5), then the least common multiple is equal to the larger of the numbers (15), and the greatest common factor is equal to the smaller of the numbers (5).If one number is divisible by another (in this case, 15 is divisible by 5), then the least common multiple is equal to the larger of the numbers (15), and the greatest common factor is equal to the smaller of the numbers (5).
Yes, if that number is a factor of the other.
Yes.
A single number cannot have a greatest common factor because "common" refers to factors that two or more numbers have in common. You have only one number.
Yes, if you're comparing a number to itself.
The least common factor of any set of numbers is 1.
Only if the magnitudes of two numbers are the same.
Yes as for example 34 and 45
Always equal to or less than the smaller number, yes.
