What is the least common factor of 4 and 5?

The least common factor is a term often mistakenly given to either the greatest common factor (GCF) or the least common multiple (LCM). This term is not often used because it does not describe a useful relationship between numbers. Since 1 evenly divides all integers, 1 is technically the least common factor for any set of integers.4 and 5 are relatively prime, which means that they share no factors aside from 1.The least common factor of any set of positive integers is 1.


Is 37.5 a prime number?

Is 0.123 a rational number?

Yes, 0.123 is a rational number because it can be expressed in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero. 0.123 can be written as 123/1000(123 and 1000 are integers and the denominator is not equal to zero).

Is the sum of the squares of integers separated by a value of 2 will always be even?

It looks to me as if that's true. I reasoned thusly, and scratched it outon the margin of my coffee-stained notepad:You gave me integers separated by 2, so the integers are [x] and [x+2].-- Their squares are [x2] and (x+2)2-- That's [x2] and [x2 + 4x + 4].-- The sum of their squares is [x2 + x2 + 4x + 4]= [ 2x2 + 4x + 4 ]-- Since [x] is an integer, each term in that trinomial is an integer.-- The coefficients are '2' and '4', so each term is an even number.-- So their sum is even.-- Q.E.D.

What is the sum of the first forty positive integers?

The sum of the first forty positive integers can be calculated using the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series, which is (n/2)(first term + last term) where n is the number of terms. In this case, the sum is (40/2)(1 + 40) = 820.

All whole numbers are integers?

all number can be negative or positive. :) The term "whole numbers" is ambiguous; sometimes it is used for integers, sometimes only for non-negative integers. It is better to use the more precise terms "integers", "positive integers", "non-negative integers", depending on what you want to say. it is also false if your looking for this answer caue it could be like 0.3,0.5 there not whole numbers


What is non positive integer?

A non-positive integer is a negative integer. The term refers to any integer (a number that has no decimal part) that is less than zero.It means that it is an integer (whole number), and that it isn't positive. In other words, that includes zero, and negative integers.

Is 12 whole number?

Yes. Whole numbers, or integers, include both positive and negative numbers; any number that has no decimals or fractional part. Actually, the term "whole number" is used in different ways by different people; some use it only for positive (or non-negative) integers; so it is probably safer to use the term "integer" or "positive integer", to clarify your intended meaning, and avoid the term "whole number" entirely.
