2 Name Date Class Reteach Factors and Greatest Common Factors (continued) If two numbers have the same factors, the numbers have common factors. The largest of the common factors is called the greatest common factor, or GCF. Find the GCF of 12 and 18. Think of the numbers you multiply to equal X 12 = 12 ' 2X6 = 12 > The factors of 12 are: 1,2, 3, 4, 6, 12 3 x 4 = 12 i Think of the numbers you multiply to equal 18. 1X18 = 18 ' 2X9 = 18 > The factors of 18 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, X6 = 18, The GCF of 12 and 18 is 6. Find the GCF of 8x2 and 10x. The factors of 8x2 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, x, x The factors of 10x are: 1, 2, 5, 10, x I The GCF of 8x2 and 10x is 2x. Find the GCF of 28 and 44 by following the steps below. 7.
