First, let's list the factors of 72, although it may seem tedious, it might be useful until you get the hang of it.
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72.
*Please Note*: That you may skip the step above if you need to.
Second, the largest factor of any number is extremely simple. It's always the number itself.
Example: Find the largest factor of 1337.
It's a no-brainer. The largest factor is undoubtedly 1337, the number itself.
Similarly, the largest factor of 72 is...well... 72.
Three.
The question does not make any sense at all because72 is not an odd number72 is not the largest factor of 720
72 is not a factor of 18; 18 is a factor of 72.
The highest factor of 72 is 72.
2 is a common factor of 24 and 72.
Three.
36
The GCF is 9.
The question does not make any sense at all because72 is not an odd number72 is not the largest factor of 720
Because 18 is the largest number that divides evenly into both 72 and 90.
72 is not a factor of 18; 18 is a factor of 72.
The highest factor of 72 is 72.
1,3,7,9,21,63 1,2,3,4,8,9,18,24,36,72 The factors in common are 1,3,9 The largest (greatest) common factor is 9
The highest common factor of 36 and 72 is 36
The greatest common factor of 24 54 and 72 is 6.
The greatest common factor of 42 and 72 is 6 Gcf stands for Greatest Common Factor, The gcf of 42 and 72 is the largest positive number that is a factor of both 42 and 72. The positive factors of 42 (the integral divisors of 42) are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42. The positive factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 36, and 72. Therefore the gcf of 42 and 72 is 6, as the greatest factor that 42 and 72 have in common.
The GCF of 72 and 144 is 72. Since 72 is a factor of 144, it is automatically the GCF.
