What is the GCF of m and n?
The GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of m and n is the largest positive integer that divides both m and n without leaving a remainder.
What is the greatest common multiple of 10 15 and 25?
This question does not make sense as asked.The least common multiple of 10 15 and 25 is 150.The greatest common multiple is 150 x n where n is any number you like. No matter how big you make n, there is always a bigger one. Since there can't be a greatest n, there can't be a greatest common multiple.
What is the greatest common multiple of 100 and 140?
No two numbers can have a greatest common multiple. For, suppose x is the greatest common multiple of two numbers, a and b. That means x = m*a and x = n*b where m and n are some positive integers. Then any multiple of x, say p*x where p is an integer, will be a multiple of a and b because p*x = p*(m*a) = (p*m)*a p*y = p*(n*b) = (p*n)*b m,n,p are integers so p*m and p*n are integers and p*x > x So p*x is a common multiple, and is greater than x, contradicting the assumption that x is the greatest.
What is equivalent to three sixths a a fraction?
It is any number of the form (3*n)/(6*n) where n is a non-zero integer or 1/n is a common factor of 3 and 6.
What is a real life situation in which knowing how to find the greatest common factor of two numbers would be helpful?
laying tiles in the bathroom(any room).measure the length n breadth of the room ,find the GCD of the measurements .that must be the size of the tile
What is the greatest common factor of 64 and48?
n
What is the greatest common factor of 71 and 7n?
71 is a prime number, so its only factors are 1 and 71. Unless n is a multiple of 71, the greatest common factor is 1. If n is a multiple of 71, the greatest common factor is 71.
Is the greatest common factor of any number n and itself is n?
Yes.
Is the greatest common factor of any number n and one n?
No, it's 1.
What is the greatest common factor of n and W?
That depends on their numerical values.
What is the greatest common factor of 144 n 900?
The GCF is 36.
What is the Greatest common factor of 12n and 11n?
The GCF is n.
If the greatest common factor of a and b is 3 what values are possible for the greatest common factor of a squared and b?
a is 3m b is 3n m and n are relatively prime - they do not have any common factors. a2 = 9m2 Since m had no factors in common with n, m2 also has no factors in common with n. We know that 3 is a common factor of a and b. The only new possible factor between a2 and b is the second 3 when a is squared. We do not know whether b had more than one factor of 3. So, the greatest common factor of a2 and b, when the greatest common factor of a and b is 3, is either 3 or 9.
What is the greatest common factor of 28n and 35?
The prime factors of 28n are 2, 2, 7, and n. The prime factors of 35 are 5 and 7. The common prime factor that is known is 7. If n is 5 or a multiple of 5, the common prime factors are 5 and 7. There are two possibilities: - If n is not 5 or a multiple of 5, the greatest common factor is 7. - If n is 5 or a multiple of 5, the greatest common factor is 5 x 7 = 35.
Is the greatest common factor of any n and 1 n?
The GCF of n and 1 is 1.
What is the greatest common factor of -50m 4 n 7 and 40m 2 n 10?
The GCF is 10m2n7
Is it true that the greatest common factor of any number n and 1 is n?
No. The GCF of any number n and 1 is 1.
