Example: 30 and 42
List the factors.
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42
Select the largest number that appears on both lists.
The GCF is 6.
You do a factor rainbow to find a prime factorization. You compare prime factorizations to find a greatest common factor.
You do not. To have a greatest common factor, you need two or more numbers. A common factor is a factor that two or more number have in common. However, the prime factorization of all the numbers will help you find the greatest common factor. The greatest common factor will be the prime factors they have in common multiplied together. Example: The prime factors of 45 are 3, 3, and 5. The prime factors of 60 are 2, 2, 3, and 5. The common prime factors are 3 and 5, so the greatest common factor is 3 x 5 = 15.
The Greatest Common Factor of 45, 65 is 5.
It doesn't matter what you use, you still need at least two numbers to find a GCF. If that's 3 and 6, the GCF is 3.
First find the greatest common factors. All common factors are also factors of the greatest common factor.The greatest common factor of 48 and 35 is the same as the greatest common factor of 35 and 13 - where 13 is the remainder of the division of 48 by 35 (using Euclid's algorithm).
Yes, you can.
i dont know what that means does anyone get this"find the greatest common factor of the numbers using prime factorization We'll be eager to jump on it as soon as you give us the numbers.
You do a factor rainbow to find a prime factorization. You compare prime factorizations to find a greatest common factor.
The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is: 12
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 2.
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 4.
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 3.
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 5.
The only factor they have in common is 1. It has to be the greatest.
There is no Greatest Common Factor (GCF) for a single number. The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is the largest factor common to two or more given numbers.
In general, all common factors of two (or more) numbers are factors of its GREATEST common factor. Thus, you need to start by using the methods you were taught, to find the greatest common factor.
You do not. To have a greatest common factor, you need two or more numbers. A common factor is a factor that two or more number have in common. However, the prime factorization of all the numbers will help you find the greatest common factor. The greatest common factor will be the prime factors they have in common multiplied together. Example: The prime factors of 45 are 3, 3, and 5. The prime factors of 60 are 2, 2, 3, and 5. The common prime factors are 3 and 5, so the greatest common factor is 3 x 5 = 15.
