How can you find the gcf of two numbers without knowing the factors?
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.
What is the greatest common factor of 58 and 60 and are the numbers are relatively prime?
The GCF is 2 which means they are not relatively prime.
What is the GCF of two prime numbers?
A prime number is a number with exactly 2 divisors: 1 and itself. Because of this, the only common divisor of two distinct prime numbers is 1, thus 1 is the gcf. So the correct answer would be: Given two prime numbers, namely x and y, the gcf is --- 1, if x and y are unequally --- x, if x=y.
What is relatively prime?
Relatively Prime numbers are sets of two or more numbers having 1 as their greatest common factor (gcf). All even numbers have 2 as a common factor, so no even number is relatively prime with any other even number.
Are 2 and 3 relatively prime numbers?
Yes. In general, if you have two different prime numbers, they will also be relatively prime.
