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.
Which of the prime numbers 2 3 4 5 6 and 7 cannot be the difference between two consecutive prime numbers greater than 2?
Any prime numbers greater than 2 will be odd numbers. The difference between two odd numbers will be an even number. So, the difference between two prime (and odd) numbers could be 2, 4, or 6, of the numbers given. The difference could not be 3, 5, or 7.
Are 10 20 30 40 etc consecutive numbers?
Defining "consecutive" as "following continuously in unbroken or logical sequence," it is possible to have many different types of consecutive things: consecutive days, months, odd numbers, even numbers, etc. The list you have is consecutive, they are consecutive multiples of ten.
What is the greatest common factor of 84 and 86?
Answer: 2 One way to approach this is to look at the difference between 84 and 86, which is 2. The greatest common factor of two numbers cannot be larger than the difference between the two numbers and must be a factor of the difference. Since both 84 and 86 are divisible by 2, the greatest common factor is 2.
