NO!!! 42 is a multiple of '6'. ( 6 x 7 = 42) However, 6 is a factor of 42.
NO!!! '7' is a FACTOR of '42'. However, '42' is a multiple of '7'.
There is not a greatest common factor of 42 because there cannot be a greatest common factor without two or more numbers to compare. Common factors are factors that the numbers being compared have in common. The greatest common factor is the largest factor that all the numbers being compared have in common. The factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42. The prime factors of 42 are 2, 3, and 7. Examples: The greatest common factor of 36 and 42 is 6. The greatest common factor of 42 and 91 is 7. The greatest common factor of 42 and 375 is 3.
The GCF of 42 and 86 is 2. One way to determine the common factors and greatest common factor is to find all the factors of the numbers and compare them. The factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42. The factors of 86 are 1, 2, 43, and 86. The common factors are 1 and 2. Therefore, the greatest common factor is 2.
The greatest common factor of 12 and 42 is 6.12 and 42's highest common factor is six.
42 21,2 7,3,2
Divide the product by the factor you have. 6 x ? = 42 42 ÷ 6 = 7
Use a factor tree. 42 21,2 7,3,2
Since 14 is a factor of 42, it is automatically the GCF.
42 21.2 7,3,2 7,3,2 21,2 42
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42
Find the prime factorization. It doesn't matter if you use a factor tree, or rainbow or firework. For example: 42 42 21,2 3,7,2 The prime factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7. The greatest prime factor is 7.
NO!!! 42 is a multiple of '6'. ( 6 x 7 = 42) However, 6 is a factor of 42.
The GCF is 21.
The GCF is 21.
6 is a factor of 42.
28 is not a factor of 42.
