How do you find the least common multiple using prime factorization with factor trees?
Example: 30 and 42 30 15,2 5,3,2 42 21,2 7,3,2 Combine the factors, eliminating duplicates. 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210, the LCM
What are the common factors for 45 81 and 63?
Use the following factor trees to determine the answer355, 7and637, 97, 3, 37 is the common factor of 35 and 63
Do factor trees always work for determining the greatest common factors?
If you construct them correctly, factor trees always work to determine the prime factorization of a number. Once you compare the prime factorizations of two or more numbers, it is relatively easy to find the greatest common factor of them from there.
How do you do prime factorization of 35 and 14 in greatest common factor?
Use factor trees.355,7142,75 x 7 = 352 x 7 = 14Select the common factor.The GCF is 7.
What is the greatest common factor of 144 and 36 using the factor tree method?
Trees aren't necessary. Since 36 is a factor of 144, it is automatically the GCF. But if you insist... 144 72,2 36,2,2 18,2,2,2 9,2,2,2,2 3,3,2,2,2,2 36 18,2 9,2,2 3,3,2,2
What do people use least common multiple of?
it can help you find answers using factor trees
What is the greatest common factor of a factor tree?
You need at least two factor trees to find a GCF.
How can you find a greatest common multiple by using a factor tree?
Trees aren't necessary. The greatest common multiple of any set of numbers is always infinite.
Can you find the LCf with factor trees?
You can, but it's not necessary. The least common factor of any set of integers is 1.
What is the least common multiple of 96 and 84?
Least common multiple is computed by finding both factor trees and using the greatest power of all common factors factors or 84 are 2,2,3,7 so, [2^2 * 3 * 7] factors of 96 are 2,2,2,2,2,3 so [2^5 * 3] LCM is 2^5 * 3 * 7 = 672 Always check. Divide the answer by the original numbers and check if the quotients are relatively prime. 672 / 84 = 8 672 / 96 = 7 8 and 7 have no factors in common, so this is the answer. If they did have a common factor, you would have to divide by that factor to get the answer, because you had missed one in your factor tree.

How do you use a factor tree to find the greatest common factor of 78 and 195?
Find out about factors and factor trees.
How do you find GCF and LCM?
To find the GCF and the LCM you have to first at least try to use prime factorization. So use factor trees. Or for the LCM find th least common multiples of the number.
When beginning a factor tree of a composite number does it matter which factor pair you start with?
no because there are multiple ways to do factor trees until u get to all prime numbers
