CoachThe greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers is the largest number that can evenly divide both numbers. To find the GCF of 156 and 204, we first need to find the prime factorization of each number. 156 = 2^2 * 3 * 13 and 204 = 2^2 * 3 * 17. The GCF is the product of the common prime factors raised to the lowest power, which in this case is 2^2 * 3 = 12. Therefore, the greatest common factor of 156 and 204 is 12.

What are the factors and prime factors of 204?
204 is a composite number because it has factors other than 1 and itself. It is not a prime number.The 12 factors of 204 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, 102, and 204.The factor pairs of 204 are 1 x 204, 2 x 102, 3 x 68, 4 x 51, 6 x 34, and 12 x 17.The proper factors of 204 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, and 102 or,if the definition you are using excludes 1, they are 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 17, 34, 51, 68, and 102.The prime factors of 204 are 2, 2, 3, and 17. Note: There is repetition of these factors, so if the prime factors are being listed instead of the prime factorization, usually only the distinct prime factors are listed.The distinct prime factors (listing each prime factor only once) of 204 are 2, 3, and 17.The prime factorization of 204 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 17 or, in exponential form, 22 x 3 x 17.NOTE: There cannot be common factors, a greatest common factor, or a least common multiple because "common" refers to factors or multiples that two or more numbers have in common.
