Try it out! Divide 72 by 48, for example on a calculator. If you get a whole number, it is; otherwise it's not.
Yes both are factors of 72
No.
The GCF of 24 and 72 is 24First find all the prime factors for each number.24: 2 x 2 x 2 x 372: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3Next find all the prime factors common to both numbers in this case it will be the following:GCF: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24Factors of 24 include 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24Factors of 72 include 1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72Therefore the greatest common factor of 24 and 72 is 24.Since 24 is a factor of 72, it is automatically the GCF.
24, 24 x 1 = 24 24 x 2 = 48 24 x 3 = 72
The Greatest Common Factor of 16, 48, 72: 8
I assume that's supposed to be a fraction, 24/72. The idea is to find a common factor - a number that is a factor of both 24 and 72. Then, divide both numbers by this factor. Repeat, until you find no more common factors.
Factors of 72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
Yes, 24 is a factor of 72 because 24 divides evenly into 72, resulting in a quotient of 3.
The GCF is 3.
Every factor of 24 is a factor of 72, since 24 is itself a factor of 72. The factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24.
24 24 goes into 24, 1 time and 72, 3 times
The Greatest Common Factor, or GCF, is 24. 24 * 3 =72 24 * 4 =96 24 * 8 =192
3
The answer is 8.
The common factors of 24 and 72 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24The common factors are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
The greatest common factor of 48 and 72 is 24.The factors of 48 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48.The factors of 72 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72.The factors that are common to 48 and 72 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24First find the prime factors of each:48=2X2X2X2X372= 2X2X2X3X3then find the matching pairs in this case 2X2X2X3= 24GCF = 24The GCF is 24.The GCF is 24.The GCF is 24.
72 and 96. Select any two co-prime numbers - for example 3 and 4. Then 24 multiplied by these will give a pair of numbers whose GCF is 24.
The GCF of 24 and 72 is 24First find all the prime factors for each number.24: 2 x 2 x 2 x 372: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3Next find all the prime factors common to both numbers in this case it will be the following:GCF: 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24Factors of 24 include 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24Factors of 72 include 1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72Therefore the greatest common factor of 24 and 72 is 24.Since 24 is a factor of 72, it is automatically the GCF.
The GCF is 3.
