What is the greatest common divisor of 108, 72, and 48?
well lets look at gcd(108,72) do you know how to write the prime factorization for 108 and 72?
or do you want to use euclidean's algoritm
What is the second one and the first one?!?!?!?!? im only in sixth grade EVERYTHING is confusing
well we can write the prime factorization for 108 and 72
euclidean's algorithm is normally thought in advanced math classes
taught*
you know what a prime number is?
yes
ok so can you write the prime factorization for 108?
um just a sec let me think
2^2.3^3?!?!?!?!?!?
good job let's just compare the first two numbers for right now 108=2(54)=2(6)(9)=2(2)(3)(3)(3) 72=8(9)=(2)(2)(2)(3)(3)
how many pairs of 2's do they have in common?
one
i think
|dw:1417066338762:dw|
