The greatest (or highest) common factor is the highest number that divides exactly into two or more numbers. 36: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36 48: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48 The GCF for 36 and 48 is 12.
5 is not.
(n - 4)(n - 12)
4 and 12
12 x 4= 12+12+12+12= 48
12

It can be either. 24 is a multiple of 12 and a factor of 48.
It is: 4*12 = 48
A factor = a number which can be divided into the given number with no remainder so yes, 12 is a factor of 48 (as is 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48)
A factor = a number which can be divided into the given number with no remainder so yes 48/24 = 2
48 is a common multiple, actually, it's the Least Common Multiple (LCM). 16*3=48 12*4=48
The series 12*1;12*2;12*3;12*4...(the multiples of 12) begins with 12;24;36;48. The series 48*1;48*2;48*3;48*4...(the multiples of 48) begins with 48, which we notice is also in the first series. Therefore, 48 is a common multiple of 12 and 48. Since 48 is the least number in the series, if 48 is a common multiple of 12 and 48, then it must be the least common multiple of 12 and 48. Since 48 is a common multiple of 12 and 48, 48 is the least common multiple of 12 and 48.
48 is a multiple of 24.
a factor is any number that can "go" into a number evenly. a multiple is the original number times a number take 12 for example factors are 6,2 4,3 12,1 multiples are 24 36 48 so on and so forth hope that helped
36 and 48 12 and any multiple of 12
