2, 3 and 7 (in any order).
2, 3, 5
Because the numbers being asked about are consecutive even numbers.
It would be 20. After dividing both numbers by 20, you get 1 and 6. And these two numbers cannot be divided by any other numbers except by 1.
Not AllTo find out if all numbers that have 5 as a factor have 2 as a factor, you can list the multiples of each. 5's multiples are 5, 10, 15, 20...2's multiples are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20...5 and 15 are multiples of 5, but not 2, so all numbers that have 5 as a factor DO NOT have 2 as a factor.It is not really necessary to write that all out because the fact that 5 is an odd number and 2 is only a factor of even numbers indicates that all numbers that have 5 as a factor would not have 2 as a factor. Only the multiples of 5 that are even have 2 as a factor also.
Well, not always. The GCF and LCM of 10 and 10 is 10. But apart from that special circumstance, the statement is true. Apart from a number itself, all of its factors are smaller than it. Apart from a number itself, all of its multiples are larger than it. You can't have a GCF that is greater than the smaller number, and you can't have an LCM that is less than the larger one which means that the LCM of two numbers will never be less than the GCF. Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
It depends on what the numbers are. For example, if the prime numbers you were talking about were 3 and 7, the least common multiple would be 21. If your numbers were 2 and 3, it would be 6.
as you can obviously see the bottom of a factor tree would be the curious numbers of 2,2,3,5
Their at the bottom of the tree because the hole point of a factor tree is to find the prime factorization of the number, so it would be at the bottom of the tree.
That would be called a "common factor" of the two (or more) numbers.
That would appear to be a meaningless sequence of numbers.
It would be impossible to list all the even numbers.
There is not a least common factor of a single number, such as 48 because there cannot be any form of common factor without two or more numbers to compare. Common factors are factors that the numbers being compared have in common. The least common factor would be the smallest factor that all the numbers being compared have in common. If there were two or more numbers, the least common factor would be 1.
There cannot be a least common factor of 27, because there cannot be any form of common factor without two or more numbers to compare. Common factors are factors that the numbers being compared have in common. The least common factor would be the smallest common factor that all the numbers have, which would be 1.
same as the bottom
Yes, 1 would be a factor of all numbers because 1 times that nuumber gets you that number.
They would both be prime numbers.
550 and 565
Both numbers are not even. If they were, the GCF would be 1742 (871*2) i think it is 5 of the two rear numbers factor
