The LCM for 1,2,3,4,5,6 is 60.
6 is the greatest common factor. 1 is always the least common factor, I am pretty sure you mean the GCF, not the LCF. Look at factors of 18. 18 itself is not a factor of 24, neither is 9 the next factor, but 6 is a factor of both. Nobody really cares about Least common factors, since it is always the same. There is least common multiple? In case you want the LCM, the least common multiple of two numbers is the product divided by the GCF, so is 18 * 24 / 6 = 72
Proper factors occur when you list all the factors of a number except for 1 and the number itself. Common factors occur when you compare a minimum of two sets of factors and see which ones they share.
The number 64 is the least number that has exactly 7 factors because it is a perfect power of a prime, specifically (2^6). The number of factors of a number can be determined using the formula ((e_1 + 1)(e_2 + 1)...(e_n + 1)), where (e_i) are the exponents in its prime factorization. For 64, the factorization is (2^6), leading to ((6 + 1) = 7) factors. Smaller numbers either have fewer factors or do not meet the requirement of having exactly 7.
The factors of 66 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, 66
The factors of 54 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27 and 54. For them to be common, they need to be compared to another set of factors, but I'll save you the trouble. The least common factor of any two positive integers is 1.
You bet. As long as at least one of the factors is a proper fraction. 1/2 x 6 = 3 (product is smaller than one factor) 1/3 x 1/4 = 1/12 (product is smaller than both factors)
6 and -1
The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. The factors of 9 are 1, 3, and 9. The common factors of 6 and 9 are 1 and 3. Therefore, the least (smallest) common factor is 1.
The product is: 1*2*3*6 = 36
The factors of 3 are 1 and 3. The factors of 5 are 1 and 5. The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. The factors they have in common are only 1, so the least (or lowest) common factor is 1. Note: The least common factor of two or more positive integers will always be 1.
They are: 1
Yes, if the factors are 1, 2 and 3.
The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18. The common factors of 6 and 18 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. Therefore, the least common factor (the smallest common factor) is 1.
The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18.Their product is 5,832 .
The factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3, and 6. The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. The factors that they have in common are 1 and 2. The least (or lowest) common factor is 1. Note: The least common factor of two or more positive integers will always be 1.
Factors of 6 : 1, 2, 3, 6 Factors of 25 : 1, 5, 25 Factors of 55, 1, 5, 11, 55 Common factor pairs = 5 (from 25 and 55) LCM = Product of all numbers divide by the common factors LCM = (6 x 25 x 55) / (5) = 1650
The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18 The common factors are: 1, 2, 3, 6 The least of these is 1. There can only be one least. The next smallest is 2.
