Can the lowest common factor be use to factor the greatest common factor?
It won't help. The lowest common factor of any two positive integers is 1.
What is the grates common factor of these numbers 25 5 11 and 23 52 7?
You can get hte greatest common factor of three numbers by the same method you use for two numbers: splitting each number into prime factors and taking all common factors. Or, if you want to use Euclid's algorithm: gcf(25, 5, 11) = gcf(gcf(25, 5), 11)). In other words, you can take the greatest common factor of any two numbers, then the greatest common factor of the result and the third number.
Name three pairs of numbers that have 5 as their greatest common factor use each number once in your answer?
200,205, 10
Where do you use GCF in real life?
When reducing fractions to their simplest form the greatest common factor of their numerator and denominator must be found.
Use prime factorization to find the greatest common factor of 15and35?
15=3*5 35=5*7 The gcf is 5.
Where is greatest common factor use?
The greatest common factor is used to reduce fractions.
How do you use greatest common factor in a sentence?

What are the greatest common factor of 240?
The greatest common factor is a function of two numbers-- it is the greatest factor that the numbers have in common. The concept does not apply to a single number. Now you can use the same number twice and ask what is the greatest common factor of 240 and 240 and the answer would be 240.
How can you use the greatest common factor?
When simplifying fractions.
What do you use greatest common factor for?
To reduce fractions
How do you know whether to use the greatest common factor or the least common multiple to solve a problem?
the least common multiple is what the numbers you are using divide into. e.g. 3 and 6 have 12 as the common factor. the greatest common factor is what divides into your numbers. 6 and 9 have 3 as the greatest common factor
Can the lowest common factor be use to factor the greatest common factor?
It won't help. The lowest common factor of any two positive integers is 1.
Do you use least common factor or greatest common factor to find equivalent fractions?
Use the GCF. The LCF is always 1.
What careers use greatest common factor?
Math teachers
What are the common factors of 100 and 5030?
Get the greatest common factor first. For example, you might use Euclid's Algorithm - the first step is that the greatest common factor of 5030 and 100 is the same as the greatest common factor of 100 and 30 (where 30 is the remainder of the division of 5030 / 100). Once you get the greatest common factor, the common factors of the two numbers are simply all the factors of this greatest common factor.
