What is the GCF of 69 and 48?

Answer 1

Well, isn't that just a happy little math problem we have here! To find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 69 and 48, we can list the factors of each number. The factors of 69 are 1, 3, 23, and 69, while the factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48. The largest number that appears in both lists is 3, so the GCF of 69 and 48 is 3.

Answer 2

Prime factorization of 69 = 3x23

Prime factorization of 48 = 2x2x2x2x3

Only 3 is common in prime factorization of both 69 & 48.

Therefore, Greatest Common Factor is 3.

Answer 3

The GCF is 3.
