Is the HCF of two numbers ever 1?
The HCF is the largest number that both numbers can be divided by. If the HCF is 1, that would suggest that the two numbers share no prime factors. Thus, any two numbers which are coprime will have an HCF of 1. Consecutive numbers are good examples here - 15 and 16, 27 and 28, 104 and 105, all have an HCF of 1.
What is the greatest common factor of two consecutive numbers?
The GCF of two consecutive numbers is always 1. The GCF of any set of numbers can't be greater than the smallest of the differences between the numbers.
What two consecutive number have a product of 324?
No two consecutive numbers have a product that is an even number. Any two consecutive numbers include one odd number and one even number. The product of one odd number and one even number is always an odd number.
What is the smaller number of two consecutive number of 42?
6?
