-- I will list all the factors of 48.
-- Then I will list all the factors of 64.
-- Then I will list all the factors of 144.
-- I'll make a new list, of the numbers that appear on all three lists of factors.
-- Then find the biggest number on this last list.
-- If it's not 16, I'll know I made a mistake, and I will go back to step-1.
ladder method of 144
It is 3 because 9/3 = 3 and 12/4 = 3
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.
1. Prime factorization of each term, then compare to get the common factors and form the GCF from them. 2. Use an educated 'guess and check' method knowing the multiplication facts (mult. tables)
No matter what you use, you still need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
It doesn't matter what method you use, you need at least two numbers to find a GCF.
The gcf is 3.
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF, whichever method you use.
The GCF of 50 and 54 is 2. Use whatever method you wish.
ladder method of 144
It is 3 because 9/3 = 3 and 12/4 = 3
You need at least two numbers to find a GCF no matter what method you use.
The GCF is 1.
For example we have 2 Nos. 24 & 36 .GCF =24)36(124------------12)24(224----------------0So the last divisor is the GCF of 24 & 36 which is 12 . And the above method is called successive division.
It works out as 17
The GCF of 10 and 15 is 5.
Example: 30 and 42 2 x 3 x 5 = 30 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 2 x 3 = 6, the GCF
