So I need some help with GCF (greatest common factor), anybody? Please please please help!!😞
take the union of thier prime factorizations
the GCF of 15 and 18 15 = 3 5 18 = 2 3 3 ------------ GCF: 2 3 3 5
did i confuse that with LCM?
Like factor trees?
Umm no I don't think so
GCD, biggest factor that they have in common so the intersection of the factors .... is what they have in common
15 = 3 5 18 = 2 3 3 ------------ LCM: 2 3 3 5 15 = 3 5 18 = 2 3 3 ------------ GCF: 3 since 3 is the only common factor
Okay so had 34, 51, and 68 the GCF came out 17 Is that right?
34 = 2 17 51 = 3 17 68 = 2 2 17 ------------- the only thing and therefore the biggest factor by default is 17
yessssss! ☺️
I have a question saying If the number is the square of a prime number it has exactly 3divisors, give an example and explain What on earth does that mean?
