It is 9 derived as: Prime Factors of 36: 2x2x3x3 Prime Factors of 45: 5x3x3 Prime Factors of 54: 2x3x3x3 The common prime factors of all the three numbers are 3x3 = 9 To check you answer: 1. Divide all the three numbers by 9 and they shall be perfectly divisible 2. Try and divide non common factors of each number by other two, it would not be perfectly divisible (i.e. Try and divide 54 by 5)
When two or more numbers have one or more of the same primes as factors, those prime factors are called common prime factors. For example, the prime factors of 6 are 2 and 3, and the prime factors of 21 are 3 and 7, so 3 is a common prime factor of 6 and 21.
The idea is to divide numerator and denominator of a fraction by any common factors. Prime factorization is simply used to find all possible factors.
The prime factors of 18 are 2, 3, and 3. The prime factors of 70 are 2, 5, and 7. The prime factors that 18 and 70 have in common are a single 2.
Divide a number and its factors by prime numbers until all the factors are prime. 210 Divide by two. 105,2 Divide by three. 35,3,2 Divide by five. 7,5,3,2 Stop. 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210

17 is a prime number so no other number will divide into it
To determine the least common multiple of two numbers, determine the prime factors of both number. Then, determine the prime factors they have in common. Multiply all their prime factors together (in other words, multiply both numbers together) and divide by the prime factors they have in common (in other words, their greatest common factor). The prime factors of 21 are 3 and 7. The prime factors of 28 are 2, 2, and 7. The prime factors in common are a single 7. Therefore, the lowest common multiple is 21 x 28 ÷ 7 = 84
Prime factors can be divided only by 1 and by themselves.
To simplify a fraction using prime numbers, find the prime factors of both the numerator and denominator. Then, divide the numerator and denominator by their common prime factors. Repeat this process until there are no common prime factors left. The resulting fraction will be simplified to its simplest form.
The opposite of a common factor is a prime factor. Common factors are numbers that evenly divide two or more integers, while prime factors are numbers that are only divisible by 1 and themselves. The prime factors of a number are the building blocks that make up that number, and they cannot be further broken down into smaller factors.
13 can divide 169.
They have the prime factors 2 and 5 in common.
19 and 90 have no common prime factors.
81 and 200 have no common prime factors.
The prime factors of 36 are 2 and 3. To be common, they need to be compared to another set of prime factors.
The prime factors of 80 are 2 and 5. For them to be common, they need to be compared to another set of prime factors.
