If one of the numbers is a multiple of the other, the smaller number is the GCF. If the two numbers are prime numbers, the GCF is 1. If the numbers are consecutive, the GCF is 1. If the numbers are consecutive even numbers, the GCF is 2.
Yes, the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of a pair of numbers can be equal to one of the numbers. This happens when one of the numbers is a multiple of the other number. In such cases, the GCF will be the smaller number itself, as it is the largest number that can evenly divide both numbers. For example, the GCF of 12 and 6 is 6, as 6 is a factor of both numbers.
The GCF is 1.
Since the numbers differ by 2 and the GCF is 2, they are consecutive even integers. So the numbers are 6 and 8.
850 and 1700 have a GCF of 850.
