Vocaloid (vocaloid):

start by listing the factors of 8

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Name the factors of 8.. They are 1, 2, 4, and 8, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Now figure out which one of those will go into 76 as well..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To get the Greates Common Factor (GCF) of 8 and 76 we need to factor each value first and then we choose all the copies of factors and multiply them: 8: 2 2 2 76: 2 2 19 GCF: 2 2 The Greates Common Factor (GCF) is: 2 x 2 = 4

OpenStudy (adi3):

yes @xMissAlyCatx is right

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

So divide 76 by each of those numbers and which ever that is the (greatest) that goes into both numbers would be your answer.

OpenStudy (adi3):

yes good job

OpenStudy (xmissalycatx):

Thank you @Adi3
