The greatest common factor of two (or more) integers is the biggest whole number that divides into each one of them.
The least common factor is the smallest whole number that divides into each one of them and must be 1.
Very possibly, you meant the least common multiple, however?
If that's greatest common factor and greatest common divisor, there is no difference between them.
The greatest common factor is the largest of the common factors.
Answer: 2 One way to approach this is to look at the difference between 84 and 86, which is 2. The greatest common factor of two numbers cannot be larger than the difference between the two numbers and must be a factor of the difference. Since both 84 and 86 are divisible by 2, the greatest common factor is 2.
The GCF of 30, 45, and 90 is 15. One way to approach this is to look at the difference between 30, 45, and 90. The difference between 30 and 45 is 15. The difference between 45 and 90 is 45. The greatest common factor cannot be larger than the smallest difference between the numbers and must be a factor of the difference. The smallest difference is 15. Since 30, 45, and 90 are divisible by 15, the greatest common factor is 15.
If we are trying to find the two numbers less than 50 with the greatest common factor, we need to pick two numbers with a larger difference between them, since the greatest common factor between two numbers cannot be greatest than the difference between the two numbers. To create a large difference, we will want one number to be close in value to 50. And, for the greatest common factor, we want the other number itself to be the greatest common factor. The greatest common factor that the larger number can have (since it is larger and thus cannot be the greatest common factor itself) is the number which is half its value. So, if we choose the even number closest in value to 50, we get 48. Then, if we take half of it, we get 24. The greatest common factor of 24 and 48 is 24. This is the largest possible greatest common factor of a pair of numbers less than 50.
If that's greatest common factor and greatest common divisor, there is no difference between them.
The GCF is the largest of the common factors.
The greatest common factor is the largest of the common factors.
No difference.
24 - 1 = 23
One way to approach this is to look at the difference between 99 and 110, which is 11. The greatest common factor of two numbers cannot be larger than the difference between the two numbers and must be a factor of the difference. Since both 99 and 110 are divisible by 11, the greatest common factor is 11.
No difference. In this context, highest and greatest mean the same thing.

The GCF is 2. The LCF is 1. The difference is 1.

Difference Between GCF and LCM. The Greatest Common Factor (or the GCF) is the greatest real number shared between two integers. ... On the other hand, the Lowest Common Multiple (or LCM) is the integer shared by two numbers that can be divided by both numbers
24 - 1 = 23
