i need help What is the greatest common factor of 54 and 72? A. 2 B. 3 C. 9 D. 18 i know that C and B is not the answer and i guess Is D

OpenStudy (liamschumm):

So 18 sounds like it could be a factor of 54 and 72. So, divide, and of course if it is true, since it is the biggest answer on the list, it would be D.

OpenStudy (liamschumm):

Just do long division.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (jollypikachu300):

the answer would be 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that will be the factor for both right

OpenStudy (vianne):

GCF = 18

There are several ways to find the greatest common factor of numbers and the most efficient method you use depends on how many numbers you have, how large they are and what you will do with the result.
