A factor is a divisor - a number that will evenly divide into another number.
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 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6.
The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20.
The common factors are 1 and 2.
Make two lists(one for factors of 6, and the other for factors of 20). In other words, find all the possible pairs of two numbers that can multiply together to make 6 and 20.
1 x 6 = 6
2 x 3 = 6
1 x 20 = 20
2 x 10 = 20
4 x 5 = 20
Secondly, you would look at your list of factors and determine which number(s) appear in both list. As you can see, 1 and 2 appears as a factor for both 6 and 20. Therefore, the common factors for 6 and 20 are 1 and 2.
Factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 Factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20 Common factors would be 1, 2, and 4.
The common factors of 24 and 420 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12
The factors of 20 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20.The factors of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24.The factors common to 20 and 24 are: 1, 2, and 4.The greatest factor common to 20 and 24 is: 4.
To find the common factors of 30 and 20, we first list the factors of each number. The factors of 30 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30. The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20. The factors that are common to both numbers are 1, 2, 5, and 10.
The common factors of 18 and 20 are 1 and 2.
1 and 2 are factors common to 6 and 20
The common factors of 6 and 20 are 1 and 2 .
The factors of 6 are: 1, 2, 3, 6The factors of 20 are: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20The common factors are: 1, 2The Greatest Common Factor: 2
The common factors of 21 and 36 are 1 and 3
The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20The common factors of 12, 18 and 20 are 1 and 2The common factors of 12 and 18 are 1, 2, 3, and 6The common factors of 12 and 20 are 1, 2, and 4The common factors of 18 and 20 are 1 and 2The total number of factors for 12, 18 and 20 are all the same (6).
The greatest common factor, or GFC, is 2. The factors of 6 are 6, 3, 2, and 1. The factors of 20 are 20, 10 ,5 ,4 ,2, and 1. The largest factor common to both numbers is 2.
Factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 Factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, and 20 Common factors would be 1, 2, and 4.
