Yes but,2and 1 are the only numbers that go in different factors.
It's not necessary.
Example: GCF of 6 and 12= 2 Example 2: GCF of 54 and 6=9 List all the factors of the numbers you use, then if the numbers you have when you list the factors have the same number in both sets of numbers, that is your GCF
187 will have the same number of factors no matter what you do to it.
A prime number is a positive integer that has exactly two different factors: 1 and itself. This is why 1 is not a prime number: it has the factors 1 and itself, but they are the same - it does not have exactly two different factors.
