What numbers have a greatest common factor of 8?
8 and 16, among others.8 and 16 have a GCF of 8.8 and 16 have a GCF of 8. So do many other pairs.8 and 16, among others.16 and 248 and 16.8 and 16, among many others.
How do you call common factor?
A common factor is an integer that divides evenly into two or more given numbers with no remainder.
What are the smallest possible numbers if the greatest common factor of an odd number and an even number is 479 and neither number evenly divides the other?
2 and 3 are relatively prime, so multiply 479 by each of them to get two numbers that have 479 as a greatest common factor and are not divisible by each other, one which will be even and one which will be odd.479 x 2 = 958479 x 3 = 1437Furthermore, this is the smallest solution. The two numbers are multiples of 479, so let's call them 479x and 479y, where 479x is even and 479y is odd. Then x must be even, and y must be odd. So x is at least 2. y is an odd number, and it can't be 1 otherwise 479y would be a factor of 479x. So y is at least 3. Theefore the two numbers are at least 479*2 and 479*3.
What do you call multiples that are shared by two or more numbers?
Those are known as "common multiples". The smallest POSITIVE of these common multiples is called the "least common multiple".
What do you call an odd number factor?
I would call an odd number factor a factor that is an odd number. I would call a number with an odd number of factors a perfect square.
What is the least common factor of 8 12 21?
The least common factor of any set of numbers is 1.By definition, 1 is a factor of all numbers. And you cannot have a factor that is less than one so it is the least.In this case 1, is also the greatest common factor since the numbers have no other common factors. We call these numbers relatively prime.
What do you call the greatest of the common factors?
It is called the greatest common factor - not surprisingly!
How do you call the greatest common factor of the common prime factors?
GCF
What does greatest common factor means?
It is the lowest common number between to initila numbers.Ex.: GCF of 2,3 & 4 is 122: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14,16, 20...3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21...4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20...
What numbers have a greatest common factor of 8?
8 and 16, among others.8 and 16 have a GCF of 8.8 and 16 have a GCF of 8. So do many other pairs.8 and 16, among others.16 and 248 and 16.8 and 16, among many others.
How do you call common factor?
A common factor is an integer that divides evenly into two or more given numbers with no remainder.
What do you call a number whose GCF is one?
It is not possible to give a sensible answer to this question. The greatest common factor (GCF) refers to a factor that is COMMON to two or more numbers. You have only one number in the question so, mathematically, the question does not make sense. If, instead, you consider a number [positive integer] whose greatest common factor is one, then there is only one possibility and that is the number one. So you would call it ONE.
How do you call a number that divides two or more numbers evenly?
A common factor.
What is the least common multiple of 11 and 23?
The LCM or least common multiple is 253. In this case, the greatest common factor of the two numbers is 1. That is to say, they have no other common factors. We call these numbers relatively prime. When two numbers are relatively prime their LCM is always the product of the two numbers.Sometimes it is easier to find the greatest common factor than to find the least common multiple by looking at multiples of both numbers. This is true if the numbers are primes like 11 and 23. So if you are give two primes, the LCM will always be the product of the two numbers.
What is the greatest common multiple of 14 and 21?
The greatest common multiple of any set of integers is infinite.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Did you perhaps mean:the greatest common FACTOR (the greatest number which divides into 14 and 21 without remainder): gcf(14, 21) = 7;the LOWEST common multiple (the smallest number which is a positive multiple of both 14 and 21): lcm(14, 21) = 42
What do you call numbers that do not have 2 as a factor?
I call them odd.
What do you call a number used as a common factor?
It is called a common factor!
