25 and 36
The greatest common factor, or GCF, is the largest positive integer that will divide evenly with no remainder into both the composite numbers. Example: 30 and 42 Factor them. 2 x 3 x 5 = 30 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 Select the common factors. 2 x 3 = 6, the GCF
1 is special 2 prime 3 prime 4 composite 5 prime 6 composite 7 prime 8 composite 9 composite 10 composite 11 prime 12 composite ext.
There are more composite numbers. A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite.
A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite. 234 is composite. All even numbers (except 2 itself) are composite.
3 and 7?
25 and 36
The numbers need not have any common factor other than 1. For example, consider 2*5 = 10 and 3*7 = 21. 10 and 21 are both composite but their GCF = 1. They are said to be relatively prime or coprime. No.
12 & 16
The GCF is 1.
The greatest common factor of the numbers 11 and 19 is 1.
If one of the numbers is a multiple of the other, the smaller number is the GCF. If the two numbers are prime numbers, the GCF is 1. If the numbers are consecutive, the GCF is 1. If the numbers are consecutive even numbers, the GCF is 2.
the GCF of 4 3 5 is 1
The greatest common factor, or GCF, is the largest positive integer that will divide evenly with no remainder into both the composite numbers. Example: 30 and 42 Factor them. 2 x 3 x 5 = 30 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 Select the common factors. 2 x 3 = 6, the GCF
Sure, they need not have common factors. For example, 16 (2 x 2 x 2 x 2) and 15 (3 x 5).
The GCF refers to whole numbers, not decimals.
Factor it. Prime numbers have two factors, composite numbers have more than two.
