The greatest common factor, or GCF, is the largest positive integer that will divide evenly with no remainder into all the members of a given set of numbers. The least common multiple, or LCM, is the smallest positive integer that all the members of a given set of numbers will divide into evenly with no remainder. Factors go into numbers, numbers go into multiples.
The GCF is: 16The LCM is: 640The LCM is: 640
The GCF is 5. The LCM is 575.
GCF=1. LCM=120
The LCM is: 27,720The GCF is: 11
The gcf is 50 and the LCM is 1000.
GCF - Greatest Common Factor (GCF is always smaller or equal to at least one of the numbers) LCM - Least Common Multiple (LCM is always greater or equal to at least one of the numbers)
lcm means least common multiple and gcf mean greatest common factor
Well, honey, if the LCM is 36 and the GCF is 3, then the pair of numbers we're looking for is 12 and 36. Why? Because 12 and 36 have a GCF of 12 (which is 3) and an LCM of 36. So there you have it, darling, a match made in math heaven.
LCM is an abbreviation for "least common multiple."
Oh, dude, the LCM is the smallest number that both 36 and 48 can divide into evenly, which is 144. And the GCF is the largest number that can divide both 36 and 48 without leaving a remainder, which is 12. So, like, those are the numbers you're looking for. Cool, right?
The GCF is 12. The LCM is 360.
The GCF is 4.
The GCF is 68, the LCM is 68
GCF is 2.LCM is 42.The GCF is 2.
The LCM is 11592. The GCF is 2.
The GCF and LCM of 24 and 42 are 6 and 168 respectively.
The GCF refers to whole numbers, not decimals.
