find the greatest common factor of 52 & 135? HELP!?

Answer 1

Here's how you do these.

Take one number and figure out all the numbers that evenly divide into your number. Write those down. Do the same for the other.

For 52... 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52

For 135... 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 27, 45, 135

Look at what numbers they have in common. In this case, they only have 1 in common. To find the GCF, find the largest number they had in common. In this case, it's one.

Hope that helped,

Answer 2

Factors of 52:

1, 52, 2, 26, 13, 4, 12.

Factors of 135:

1, 135, 3, 45, 27, 5, 9, 15.

I didn't get a common factor of them both, so unless I have missed a factor or otherwise, there may be none.

Answer 3

there are no common factors....


factors of 52 =
1, 52, 2, 26, 4, 13

factors of 135 =
1 135, 3, 35, 5, 27, 9, 15,


there may be other factors of each. but i do know there are no common factors still

Answer 4

1.

I don;t think that counts, but the only factors of 52 are 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, and 52. 135 can't be divided by any of those except 1.

Answer 5

52 = 2*2*13
135 = 3*3*3*5
As you can see, there is no common factor (unless you want to include 1), so you can't have a greatest common factor.

Answer 6

find the prime factorization of each, and circle the numbers they have in common. multiply the circled numbers to find the greatest common factor. Shown below:

52=13x2x2

135= 3x3x3x5

Since they have no numbers in common, then their greatest common factor is 1

Answer 7

1, there are no common factors
52 = 2*2*13
135 = 5*3*3*3
