The greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers is the largest number that divides both numbers evenly. In this case, the GCF of 12 and 144 is 12. The least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of both numbers. The LCM of 12 and 144 is 144. Therefore, the numbers that have a GCF of 12 and an LCM of 144 are 12 and 144.
Well, honey, if the LCM is 36 and the GCF is 3, then the pair of numbers we're looking for is 12 and 36. Why? Because 12 and 36 have a GCF of 12 (which is 3) and an LCM of 36. So there you have it, darling, a match made in math heaven.
If the GCF of two numbers is 12 and the LCM is 24, the two numbers are 12 and 24.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF or an LCM and the LCM of those numbers can never be less than the GCF. 12 and 360 have a GCF of 12 and an LCM of 360. So do 60 and 72.
