Example: What are the common prime factors of 120 and 252?Find the prime factorization of each number by breaking it down into the lowest possible numbers that can be multiplied together to make the original number.120 = 2x60 = 2x2x30 = 2x2x2x15 = 2x2x2x3x5252 = 2x126 = 2x2x63 = 2x2x3x21 = 2x2x3x3x7Notice that there are 2 2's and a 3 in each factorization: the common prime factors are 2, 2, and 3.
All nonzero numbers have factors. Some numbers have some of the same factors as other numbers. These are known as common factors.Common factors are factors that two or more numbers have in common. These are factors that are the same. All integers will have 1 as a common factor. Some integers will have additional common factors. For example, 4 and 6 have as their common factors 1 and 2.Numbers that evenly divide one or more numbersEx: 2 is a common factor for the numbers 4 and 6
There is neither a greatest common factor nor common factors of a single number, such as 2, because there cannot be any form of 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. Thus, since there are not two or more numbers to compare, there are neither common factors nor a greatest common factor. The factors of 2 are 1 and 2. The prime factor of 2 is 2. Examples: The common factors of 2 and 6 are 1 and 2; the greatest common factor is 2. The common factors of 2 and 33 are only 1; the greatest common factor is 1.
No. Two numbers are relatively prime if they have no prime factors in common. Two even numbers will have 2 as a prime factor in common.
Answer:The common factors of 16 and 28 are 1, 2, and 4.Definition: A factor is a divisor - a number that will evenly divide into another number. The common factors of two or more numbers are all the factors that the numbers have in common.Methods:One way to determine the common factors is to find all the factors of the numbers and compare them.The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16.The factors of 28 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, and 28.The common factors are 1, 2, and 4.
