The greatest common factor of 17, 68, and 85 would have to be 17.

This is due to the fact that 17 cannot be divided by anything except itself and zero. 68 can be divided by 17 four times, and 85 can be divided by 17 five times. This concludes that 17 would be the Greatest Common Factor of these three numbers.

What is the Highest common factor of 28 and 68?

To find the greatest common factor (GCF), first find the prime factorization of the two numbers. The GCF is the product of all of the prime factors the two numbers have in common. Prime factors of 28: 2, 2, 7 Prime factors of 68: 2, 2, 17 They have in common: 2, 2. 2x2=4 The GCF is 4.


What are the factors and prime factors of 340?

340 is a composite number because it has factors other than 1 and itself. It is not a prime number.The 12 factors of 340 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 17, 20, 34, 68, 85, 170, and 340.The proper factors of 340 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 17, 20, 34, 68, 85, and 170 or,if the definition you are using excludes 1, they are 2, 4, 5, 10, 17, 20, 34, 68, 85, and 170.The prime factors of 340 are 2, 2, 5, and 17. Note: There is repetition of these factors, so if the prime factors are being listed instead of the prime factorization, usually only the distinct prime factors are listed.The 3 distinct prime factors (listing each prime factor only once) of 340 are 2, 5, and 17.The prime factorization of 340 is 2 x 2 x 5 x 17 or, in index form (in other words, using exponents), 22 x 5 x 17.NOTE: There cannot be common factors, a greatest common factor, or a least common multiple because "common" refers to factors or multiples that two or more numbers have in common.


What multiplies to equal 68?

Its prime factors: 2*2*17 = 68


You scored exactly 100 on a target how many throws and what numbers did you hit 16 17 24 39 or 40?
